I am in need of a nipple for the oil filter/oil pump. The 225 is a 71 not sure if they had the stand pipe or not. Any help is appreciated Thanks Joe
 
You can use either, the older models had the pipe, later years did not. Most replacement pumps will not have the pipe. I don't know for sure but a V8 nipple may be the same

I may be wrong but I have torn down a few later /s ( 80s versions ) and they all had the pipe, evidently when you buy a new pump they do not come with the pipe and they expect you to use your old one.

I found this out the hard way
 
I'm back to the slant lol, I tried a v8 nipple it fits the filter but wont screw in the pump. Anyone have a slant nipple laying around? Thanks
 
You don't need one if you use the WIX 51806, it has a built in one.
 
pump or engine side the thread on the slant is coarse, the thread on the v-8s are fine.

filter side the thread is fine for all.
