Tensioner Oil Feed Passage

Org, I have been doing over my water pump and resealing my upper oil pan and decided to update my 95 tensioner and guide. Before Installing the TSB says to clear out the oil feed passage. I am doing this work in my backyard and I don't have an air compressor. Can comeone tell me exactly where this passage is located and if a can of computer air or something else I can try is sufficient enough to clear it? Thanks

You can see it once you remove the tensioner itself, IIRC the passage leads to the oil filter. So take the oil filter off and the tensioner then blow your compressed air down the tensioner passage and it should shoot out of the oil filter hole. A can of conpressed air should be sufficient pressure as long as its not too clogged lol.
