I thought the same thing. Then I thought about it and looked at the pic some more and I guess on D16Y's the dipstick is over by the timing cover. I didn't know that, I haven't gotten that close to a Y engine.

+1, using the hf manifold was thinking of a z6 or a zc or some older obd1/0 engine. guess it is a y7 after all

well if that thing circled is the water inlet then you need to clock that turbo. becuase that would make the oil feed sideways making the oil drain side ways also thus ------- your turbo up
