Default Oil return, how hot will it get?

Well, I can get some tubing (1/2inch, don't feel like getting a bunch of new fittings for 5/, from home depot, and they say the hose will hold 250degrees, it's the black rubber hose with some cloth in it. Will this due, or will engine oil burn right through this?

just go buy some brass fittings and some steel braided AN-10 lines and just use some of those screw clamps.

you guys think 1/2inch return line will be fine? I'm just looking for something that will work, and will not blow my turbo the second it's on. It just has to be "HMT" to be short.
