turbo oil line inlet

[EV0300]

Spent all arvo putting my new turbo in and had it all done only to find that the bolt the sits at the top of the head which connects the turbo oil line inlet to the turbo had snapped....
so that sucked. my question is are these bolts easy to get and is there a part no for them? really need one 2moro as im taking it to get tuned etc. cheers

Commonly known as a " Banjo Bolt" shouldn't be too hard to get hold of I would imagine....
I got a couple here somewhere if you get stuck..

Enzed or Pirtek will sell them.

checked both places today no luck found one in a diesel engine shop but it was about 1 thread shorter the centre hole was wider and the hole that feeds oil into the line is about 1/2 the size of the original. do you think thats ok? or will it starve the turbo of oil? should i drill it abit bigger?

Is it a Mitsubishi turbo or aftermarket, if its Mitsubishi, say 16g ect, you just want the same size as the stock oil drain.
If its aftermarket like a garret journal bearing the oiling requirements are very specific, at idle, under load and the max pressure the turbo can see, you should hook up an oil pressure gauge and test it when installing, so you don’t blow a seal from too much or starve it of oil. you will then end up buying restrictor fitting of various size till you get the pressure correct.
