Subject: [CR]bb oiler port advice sought

I have recently picked up a Jack Taylor touring bike from the 1960's. In cleaning it, I noticed that it has an oiler port on the bottom bracket shell, something I have noticed on other bikes, and I believe discussed on this list at one time.

Are these functional and worth using? Is there a special connector to the fitting or port for putting "oil" (if that's what one uses) into them?

Thank you.

Cheers.

Tom
