If you look hard enough you'll find that a hex key modified for oiling has already been patented.

On top of that, it doesn't work efficiently, because of how the oil has to pass into it.

One version of the IMS Solution was oiled in this manner. We oiled the OEM bearing in this manner during testing way back in 2007, but once the issue was conclusively determined NOT to be lubrication, we tabled it. Thats been the case with many more time than people know about.

On top of that, if you want to create a stress riser that will waken the oil pump drive, just EDM or bore a hole through it. They break without any help, in stock form.
