A windage tray keeps the oil that is down in the pan from splashing back up
on the crank. A crank scraper is a piece of metal that is custom filed to be
very close to the crank to "scrape" off any excess oil. If you have a summit
catalog laying around they have a pic of one in with the windage trays.
