-AN Adapter for Oil Hard Line(Not oil cooler line!)

I was removing my emissions today and instead of the weld breaking on the vac rac, the f'n line to the turbo from the block broke(AWESOME). So now I am gonna just replace it with some SS -AN, but where can I find a metric adapter for the banjo bolt on the block? What is the pitch size of the banjo, and the other end MXX?, What grade of -AN should I go with 4 or 6? I figure three feet will be enough do you guys think? Where should I buy this stuff? I was thinking of going with JEGS because of the free shipping(9.00 dollar handling fee though, free shipping my ***) and it'll only take like 3 days to get here to St. Louis. Does anyone have any suggestions or advice, tis really sucks btw.

On another note I figured out why my "check engine" light goes off when boosting at any psi. Seems the wire to my knock sensor broke, heh I guess that'll do it. Would that have been the culprit, I can't exactly test my theory because of the above situation.

Thanks in advance.

Mitch

Nevermind about not being available, they are, so let me get this straight before I order them. I need to get:
2, -04 AN Male Thread 12X1.5mm adapters.
1 90 degree swivel hose end for the block side.
1 straight hose end for the turbo side.
3 feet of -04 AN SS Line.
1-AN Wrench as to not screw up the look.
Then I am all set correct?

nope.. 12x1.5mm is for block side only.. if I remember correctly, the turbo side oil inlet was not threaded, but was connected by a flange held down with 2 bolts.. I would suppose you could possible tap the oil inlet hole to accept an adaptor.. you could possibly keep the stock hardline on the turbo side and clamp on the hose to the hard pipe.. look kind of ghetto, but would be easier than tapping the center housing..

No it is threaded, not at the turbo but about 6 inches down the tube going towards the block it is threaded, and joins another portion of the tube, I'll just manually see what size it is I guess.
