My neighbor has an Allis c and the oil line that goes into the governor area keeps coming out is there something that is supposed to hold that in ?

I don't know if you got this figured out yet or not but I figured I would at least get your thread bumped so maybe someone will see it that can help.

Is there an internal o-ring? Is the tip of the oil line bulged out at all? If it is there is more then likely an internal o-ring and when the o-ring is in good shape it basically clamps it tight enough to seal and hold it in.

I would think it should have either a brass ferrule or a flat rubber grommet that gets tightened snug by the fitting. Not being familiar with the tractor, that's as much as I can offer.

I have not run a C since I was in high school. M father-in-law had a WD45 and as i recall it was a standard brass fitting(flare nut) on the oil line.

If that's the case, then the flare has simply broken off the line. A flare tool & a minute of time, and it'll be fixed.
