Calm down and read the blasted post.
It was an FYI to go with the graphic, nothing more.
Look at post# 46......
Do you see the link ?
Please take a look at this thread
Prestart oil prime of a long storage engine can save your bearings and bank account.
There is IMO only one reasonable, correct, safe way to assuredly pressurize the oil gallery and bearings without using the engine oil pump, and the oil drain plug must be removed, or you will over fill the crankcase.
I am setup to do this, as I try to keep at least five engines ready to install, on the shelf.
The engine may set three years before use, and I pressurize the oil gallery and bearings before it goes in the body.
