Default Confused, how does the oil get from A to B?

I cannot find this in the Rave. It only shows the oil entering, but not exiting the heads, and the description skips it too.
How does the oil return to the block from the heads?
I got oil leaking from my headgasket at #3 cylinder,
and looking at this headless block I see no oil pathways
in the block/head area at all.
The opening at each end is for collant correct?
I figured since a Buick design it would have the normal GM weep holes on the low side of the heads, but me no see any....any.
It is making my brain cringe, so fishing for the facts.

The oil returns are on the back and front of each head, lowest point.

If you are worried about oil in a cylinder area, you may want to check your rings, not a common thing on a Rover but would fit your issue.
