Default oil feed problem

Been doing some more testing. The valve rockers appear to be running dry, I can hear the noise of rattling valve springs . A peek in through the cap in the rocker cover reveals no oil anywhere . There should be some oil in there surely ?

Maybe the oil line coming up through the block to the rocker shafts is blocked ?

I will have to unscrew the pipe at the shafts and see if any oil comes through .
