This is the low pressure cylinder motion linkage head. You
can see in this picture small brass cups. These are oil cups. In all on one
engine there are 105 places to oil. On the walking beam you can find these
cups at every point where one piece rubs against another. The engines were
oiled every hour, while the engine was moving at about 12 to 15 revolutions.
