Engine oilers need to be replaced with new engine?
Mazda is putting a new engine into my 2006 RX8 with 75k miles. Dealer says I need new oilers. What do you guys think? Worth the expense?

Yeah I didn't find anything when I searched either... why I came here to ask! I think they are referring to the oil lines.

Oil lines, or the oil injectors, would be my guess.
