One hole cable oiler clamp

I have a set of cables with dummy grease nipples, the late special I got them for has a one hole clamp.
Which cable nipple goes in the clamp and where would the other three go?
Cheers Martin.

You have a mismatch.

There was only one hole for a grease nipple on later models. Presumably, only the clutch got to be serviced.

In the interests of 'originality' & if the frame should only have a clamp with one hole, you need different cable outers for the gear change cables inners, or fit them the other way around (top to bottom) so that the nipples end up somewhere else out of sight, I guess :?

That's if it bothers you.....
