Is there any alternative for the turbo oil return line on my SVO. Did any one use something that the made from a Home Depot, ect. My original one sprung a leak from taking the turbo out a bunch of times. I bought the one Stinger has and it's a tight fit and hard to get back on when I put the turbo back in. Has anyone tried a hose or something like that. I need one, I just had my motor rebuilt and changed all the hoses and lines. Any help would be great, thanks

Here is what I did. The 5/8" high temp silicone hose is from ATP Turbo. I used fittings from their site as well. I used an extension spring that I got from Home Depot that had the same OD as the hose ID and cut off the end loops. The spring keeps the hose from kinking. The hose is 8" long. I use full wrap style worm clamps from McMaster-Carr. I install a heat shield sleeve from Summit over top of the hose for added protection against the turbo/manifold heat.
