I would ditch the barb hose crap and take the time to find a SS line with threads on both ends.

Have your local plumbing shop make it for you for under $10. fing02.gif

why not simply drill and tap the engine block itself instead of the oil pan?
factory clena look and no hose near the downpipe

The bottom of the turbo usually sits at the base of the block, so the only part lower than the turbo is the pan.

Basically, you want the oil return line to be below the turbo, but above the oil level in the pan. That generally leaves the top of the pan.

It could be made nicer if you had time.. take the pan off, weld the bung in, and then ship the whole thing off to be powdercoated.

with the "real" motoria manifold, ss autochrome manifold,champion,spintech you have enough space to put the oil return in the block
other manifolds you'll have to check
