Default right angle t3 adaptor

I am after an oil line adaptor to go on my t3. At the moment my oil line goes into my t3 turbo straight and therefore if the housing on the turbo isn't turned it fouls on the manifold. If it were at right angles I could then have the turbo lines going exactly top to bottom and therefore drain oil properly.

Anyone know of anywhere that would sell a right angle oil in adaptor for a Garrett T3???

Any help much appreciated as I think its about time I got off my arse and put the old girl back together.

what a fool I am!!!

I have found the right angle adaptor on my broken turbo!!! Just a case of getting it off by undoing the turbo bolts to spin it round so it can turn past the housing. I feel a bit of a wally!!!!

I got the right angle oil adaptor off today after a battle with 3 other seized bolts to swivel the housing to get at it. Anyway I have done it now so onwards with fitting the T3 and putting her back together. I have found a really good garage near by to weld brakets up for me for my ally rad so all that will be left soon is battery relocation and steering rack. After that general service and tuning.
