technically not a stock turbo oil feed line, an aftermarket one which is missing a critical component, unless you want to rust prevent your engine bay.

lyger is referring to a cap that would screw on. specifically a compression fitting cap. common stuff at any decent hardware store

well if he's gonna run the turbo that would be the feed line to supply oil to the turbo. hopefully he gave you the rest of the oil line kit that isn't attached.

You may want to cap that before you attempt starting it or rolling it over OR it will shower the engine bay with oil.
