Serge its Society of Automotive Engineers, lol, and they have a National group in the US and an International one that advocates as much standardization as reasonable among auto manufacturers. Their main function as I understand them is to create and maintain standards by which automobiles are measured by along with parts and support industry. By that I mean uniform standards for measuring things like horsepower and torque, and establishing standards for measuring fluid quality and use, like for oils and coolant. It seems to me that their purpose was more for accurate information getting to the consumer, and his ability to make selections based on a standard scale rather than just advertising.
John as long as we keep the pickup tube immersed in motor oil we should be okay at any reasonable mounting angle, and once in flight positive g's will keep the oil returning properly. Maybe we should ask William Wynne if it should just become the standard to over fill the Corvair to the bottom of the pushrod tubes, and call this aviation full.
