Helpful Expert Reply:
The 3/8" talked about for the MB Sturgis Propane Elbow Adapter # 204163 is the internal diameter. Sometimes fitting sizes can be confusing for propane parts because the measurement given goes by the internal and not the external dimensions.
Since this is designed specifically for propane I'm not sure how well this will work for an oil line, plus the fittings will likely be different than your motorcycle so you'll have to get creative on that side of things.
