Steve, 

That drawing really helped me understand how the the OMP works.  = The 20b OMP is very similar, although the lever has been replaced with a st= epper motor and a solenoid.  Also, the 20B plunger and ports are large= r, which makes sense as it must pump 50% more oil.  So, it looks like I'll be using the 20b pump after all.

Regarding the plugged port, this was done by Mazda.  So, I'll lea= ve it as is.  Maybe they used the 2-rotor casting for the 3-rotor engi= nes... just a guess.
