Subject: [CR]Cinelli B.B. grease ports question

I posted a request for info on my Cinelli b.b. with oil port holes a few days ago. Is it possible no one knows? My question was: How are the holes used? Is there a special fitting for each of the holes for either grease or oil? How does it actually function? Does the whole b.b. fill up with either oil or grease? If so, it sure sounds messy.
Thanks again.
