I've run stainless braided teflon hose as my oil return with no issues with heat. But since you have stainless braided rubber hose I would definitely wrap that with some heat sleeve to be on the safe side.

Hard to tell, but is the line dipping below the return hole? Heard of puddling issues which could cause your turbo oil seals to take a dump. I agree to heat sleeve to be on the safe side too.

It is a little below the return hole. There's no kinks on it though. Would it still flow free to the return hole?
