Systems and methods for rocker arm lubrication

A method for an engine, the method comprising:

• during a first condition, flowing lubricating oil to a tip of a rocker arm via a supply channel fluidically connected to a first channel by splashing lubricating oil to a cover of the rocker arm, the splashed oil dripping on the tip via a conical protrusion housed on the cover;
• and
• during a second condition, suspending flow of the lubricating oil to the tip by offsetting the first channel from the supply channel,
• wherein the conical protrusion includes a wider base housed on the cover and a narrower end facing the rocker arm.

A system for an engine, the system comprising:

• a first vertical channel fluidically coupled to an oil sump at a cylinder head at a first end via one or more vertical and horizontal channels;
• a supply channel selectively aligned with the first vertical channel based on an angle of a rocker arm;
• and
• one or more conical protrusions housed on a cover of the rocker arm vertically above a tip of the rocker arm coupled to a valve.
