engine fire

well got my first engine fire this weekend. looks like the oil return line from under the turbo touched the manifold and melted causing oil to spew everywhere. Fortunately i was able to pull into my drive way and pull out a extinguisher before any further damage happened. Definitely discouraging tho.....

anyone have any suggestions on piping or braided line?

I have attached a pic to see the damage. i hope it works.
