I like to go straight to the oil galley, though that requires redrilling and
tapping a galley plug hole. No one way valve required. If you're going to go
to the adapter you need to figure out the flow path--some of them are
different--and tap in where you'll get the most direct feed to the block. You
don't want to go through the filter.
