Given that you were more interested in being smug than politely setting the record straight, I'll do it for you:

Many 427 FE side oilers (not all) were built and delivered in medium riser configurations, medium riser denoting the head and intake port dimensions. As a result, many people who are not quite so hung up on semantics, tend to bucketize the side oiler/medium riser/FE label.
