The oil return that goes to the pan is a tube with a hose connection, not a line. The turbine oil system is basically a gravity-feed where the oil comes in the top and drains out the bottom. Get a piece of tube that is the same diameter as the oil drain on the turbine and weld that in. Pic of my M8270 mounted:



Note the drain to the pan is a tube with a hose connected to it (black tube on bottom of turbo). Weld an identically sized tube plumbed to the oil pan for a return, and you will be golden.


You will love the M7960 btw =)
