good place to buy oil fittings

hey guys i recently purchased an oil line kit and the oil feed nipple on my turbo doesnt match the one on the oil line (i think the person that owned the turbo before me changed it) so i need to get an adapter to go from the turbo oil nipple to the connector on the oil line. where is a good place to get parts like this? im looking for a store I can go to so i can actually test fit it, not guess by looking at a pic on the internet

A local hardware store or even home depot should have it. Just look in the brass fittings section.

Re:good place to buy oil fittings

I would suggest a good sized auto parts store over the hardware store, I've always been able to get what I need from autozone.. may take me an hour but at least I got the project done. Expect to pay $1 per fitting (brass). Currently I have a few five gallon buckets full of various fittings so I don't think I will ever need them again (surplus from my dad's work).
