hole next to oil filter

I have this oil filter adapter http://www.summitracing.com/parts/sm...make/chevrolet

when I went to put it on I saw this other hole where the adapter screws in that I didn't see before. What is it and i'm assuming I have the wrong filter adapter now

Re: hole next to oil filter

What hole are you asking about the one one the side ? The feed from the oil pump .

Re: hole next to oil filter

that's where the oil comes from the oil pump to the filter, line up the cut-out on your new adapter with that...
