Yes, originally it only resorted to splash lubrication. Which doesn't really seem to be so much of an issue for a sidevalve design. Presumably a pressurized lube system would be much better for an improved-performance derivative of such engine, yet being able to avoid an oil pump could in the end be still a desirable feature.
