I just found my reference. Page 260 of Christopher Balfour's "A very British Story"
This suggests Bristol engineers did some development of oil baffles that was later adopted by Chrysler. If so, no information on whether this was just Canadian built models.
It would be interesting to compare late 1950s Poly engines with those from the end of the 60s and even early LA models that shared bottom end components.
