Hi Daveyy and welcome.

Is your bike a CB550 F1 or a 500/4?

There seems to be some confusion on the board.

Not sure what you mean with the oil as the 500/660 oil restrictors were in the barrel dowels at the base gasket level

my bad bryanj.lookin in the haynes it gives info on both 400 and 550,it shows oil jet pipes running either side of the cam,as the rocker was all ready off i assumed they were lost,but now i'm leaning toward the notion that their on the 400 only ::)did i explain i'm a novice ;D :D

I'm in Liverpool, seen only couple other 400's in recent years over here, a red one in Bold St and a red one at the sprint at Aintree.
