What I have here is a 16g center piece and exhaust housing on my t3/t4 turbo, which the stock 2gen oil return line does not fit perfectly. I had to drill the stock flange closer in order for it to fit, but now theres a leak. Does anyone out there know if the stock oil return line for the 1 gen will fit perfectly. I am not sure but people told me that the 1gen might of come with a small 16g or maybe the center piece and exhaust housing was from a 16g. Tell me if this is correct because I am going to order the oil return line from Mits. dealership for 15 bucks.
This is my secound time I have to order this part but for the 2gen. The first time I thought there was a crack in it so I replace it and it still leak and its coming from the flange where I had to redrill it closer.

Any help will be appreciated.
 
Try some RTV before buying another hose. It worked for others as well as myself.

Do you have gaskets on there?
