Oil Line Location

Total noob here, and very non-mechanical. I have an '86 NQ 50 and the oil tank is missing the oil line out flow. I can't seem to find one at my cycle shop. I might have to fab one. Where does it go after the WIDE tank out flow? I know there's a filter in there too. I have downloaded the service manual from here, but the pictures are poor & I can't seem to find a good still online of the set up. Any help would be appreciated. Love this site!

To a rubber right angle reducer, then to a male/male hose connector barb, then to the oil line.

I use online parts fiches for diagrams and part numbers.

The rubber joint appears to be still available from Honda.

Mousewheels thanks for the diagram. It still looks like I might have to fab up the hose. I’ll try Honda to see if I can get the joint. Where does it attach to the carb?

Just to be clear on the oil pump, lines and connections, here is a diagram from the 85-87 Aero50. The diagram is very close to the Spree layout - with small differences like the Oil tank joint which is *not right angle* as a Spree would be.

The Spree Intake has two taps, which should be connected as follows:
