The oil jet bolt was a recall for European owners. Some owners here in the US have took it upon themselves to upgrade the old design to the newer design. Theres tons of threads about the "euro" recall on these forums. If you have the motor apart, why not change it to the newer design bolt?
Also, Honda changed the oil jet bolts on the assembly line mid 02. So they are as Honda designed it. They are stock on all 03-07 cars as well as Mid year 02 cars. Any short block purchased mid year 02 or later was well. You really should change them.

I figured you guys would enjoy this project along with me so I'll keep everyone up to date.

mxt77 - I'm putting it back to stock, I like how ballanced the S2K is on a track with stock equip.
How much did you get an s2000 with a blown motor for?
