Yeah I got the broken piece out, and the new pieces in. But the new pieces are not stock GM replacements or anything, they're just brass fittings that fit. I got them at home depot. My only local junkyard for many miles did not have any replacements for me, and neither did anyone else. So I ended up just getting a 90 degree brass elbow, and like a 2 inch tube. Put everything all together with thread tape. The openings for the oil to flow through the new fittings, are bigger than the stock ones were on the stock piece. Probly half again as big. So much more oil can now flow through the fittings, and get to the sending unit. But the sending unit does have its own little reducer hole, so I don't know.
