turbo water inlet

Does anybody know if there is a premade flange avaliable for turbo water inlet (pipe next to the split air pipe) that converts to -6AN?

My stock hard pipe flange is warped and doesn't seal anymore. I'd prefer to just convert to a stainless steel line to make it easier to remove in the future.

For reference if anybody else looks at this thread the banjo bolt on the turbo is an M16 x 1.5

just cut the flange off the line and get a -6 weld fitting for it. atpturbo.com might have something as well.

gotcha. A split air block off plate fits there as well correct? My stock flange is bent.
