Default blue smoke from exhaust...after removing nylon line from back of block

I removed the nylon line...(that went to a "T"...one to turbo...other to oil pressure gauge)

I was a little worried about the line breaking....after seeing a few drips come from it...

so I connect the 4-an line directly to the back of the block..(today)
now I have massive blue smoke from the exhaust when sitting still...
(starts smoking within 2 sec. from idle)

now my question is...
I know I need some sort of restrictor for this td04h 13c...

but how long can I go until I can get one? (before the turbo seals take a hike)
or--find another way to restrict a bit more oil...

because that pin hole adapter & thin nylon line....was acting like a restrictor.

any suggestions?

edit this :

smoke is coming from my exhaust
would my exhaust side seal of the turbo blown?
or possible rings/seals....<--but that wouldnt be the issue...if I just changed it today & it started doing this...

can too much oil get in the turbo & smoke come from the exhaust without the exhaust seal on the turbo being blown?
haha....answer that

meh, more likely your seals are blown. A restrictor could be used as a bandaid to probably reduce the smoking, but it likely won't stop.
