An oil structure of an internal combustion engine includes a main oil pump configured to suck lubricating oil stored in a crankcase and feed the lubricating oil to respective engine parts and a scavenge pump configured to recover the lubricating oil from any lubricated engine part and return the lubricating oil into the crankcase. The scavenge pump has: an oil suction passage extending from the lubricated engine part to a suction side of the scavenge pump; and an air introduction passage for negative pressure control connected to the oil suction passage. An air introduction port of the air introduction passage is open to the inside of the crankcase and is set to a height position such that, when a level of the lubricating oil in the crankcase is inclined, the lubricating oil flows in from the air introduction port and returns from the scavenge pump into the crankcase.
