Default once LS/vtec'd can a head be used on a vtec motor?

once done for ls/vtec can you put the head back on a vtec motor??

would you just run the oil line like you did for the ls/vtec?

and then supposing you didnt use aftermarket dowels, would you have to have the vtec block drilled for the different pins??
