Do you think the oil injection pump drive pad could be adapted to drive a
vacum  pump?    James

I guess nobody knew the answer. I would say not as the power out of that
is minimal. Come to think about it the same goes for driving an alternator.

If we are going to machine anything to be driven from that it should be a 
small injection pump with a separate oil supply for apex seal lube injectors.
