Need help on Turbo

I was putting together my t4/t3 hybrid and now my oil line from my engine does not fit, because of the larger backing plate and housing. What did you guys do? Have one built or is there a place to buy one?

I had a problem with the oil drain line being obstructed by part of the plate that holds on the wastegate. I had to grind about 1/2'' of metal off of it.

If both ends of the oil line can bolt up, you could cut the metal line, and run your own hose between the now two different pieces of the old oil line.
