If you lost the whole flange (2 bolts) -- then no.. ebay, online, or adapt something from a junkyard turbo.

SO THERE IS NO WAY??

SINCE THIS SITE IS CALLED HOMEMADE TURBO, CANT I JUST BUY A PIECE OF ALUMINUM OR METAL CUT IT OUT TO THE EXACT SIZE FLANGE, DRILL A HOLE BIG ENOUGH FOR THE DRAIN LINE, WELD A BOLT ON TO THE FLANGE, AND STICK A COMPRESSION FITTING ON THAT (THREAD ONE END INTO THE BOLT, OTHER END TO THE HOSE) LET ME KNOW IF THAT WILL WORK?? IM IN DESPRET NEEDS RIGHT NOW!! I CANT WAIT 4 DAYS JUST FOR A FLANGE....THANKS ALOT MAHALO!!

It's really not that hard to make one. Just take a piece of steel bar stock the size you need, make a template of the bolt holes and the oil return hole. Trace the template onto the bar stock, drill your return hole and weld a piece of tubing to it. Then drill out the bolt holes.
