Mind explaining what you're trying to do? You could tap the turbo and front cover for -AN fittings if you really wanted to (or find ebay adapter flanges), but there's no reason you should have trouble using an S4 drain line with an S4 (or S5) turbo with an S4 front cover. As long as the drain line matches the front cover, it will work.

If I am not mistaken, S5 oil return line is longer because goes around the OMP.
