I have replaced the leaking O-rings and I am ready to reassemble. No oil came out of the compressor so I want to add some back.

1 - I have the compressor off the car and the manifold off of the compressor. Do I just pour the oil directly into the compressor through the openings where the manifold mounts? Does it matter which opening? High pressure side or low?

2 - Should I expect to see any oil come out of the old RD once I remove it and turn it upside down? Do I add any to it directly to the RD?

Poor the oil in the suction port. If you replace the Drier I would add some to it also.
