Might need an Oil Drain Hardline made...
 
I'm going to try one more thing with AN fittings but the spot I'm working in is so tight it might not work.
The other solution would be to have a custom hardline made... basically a T4 flange to bolt to the turbo with a 1/2" hardline coming off of it, with a couple bends in it to get it past the manifold/turbo.
I can bring the manifold and turbo to you to make sure everything fits properly.

Similar to the line in this picture, except I was thinking of just doing the hardline for the first half, and doing an AN fitting and braided line off of that to lead down to the oil pan.

Not sure if aluminum or steel would be better, but wanted to see if you were up to the job. Let me know, thanks.

edit: my current setup looks like this and it hits the manifold at this point (or if i rotate it, it hits the compressor outlet). Too tight of a space for this...

Its hitting the manifold in this pic, not allowing the turbo to sit flush on the manifold

here's what it looks like off the turbo currently...

Give us a ring if you're still in need of this, Troll. I need to stop in TST more often to check up on these threads--sorry for the delay.

hey man no problem, i've had a lot on my plate lately too. i ended up finding a way to do it with braided hose and fittings, i think it'll work but if not then i'll be in touch for plan b.
