Default Serious 14b oil line question

Question thats stupid as ---- but here we go.

I was racing yesterday and all of a sudden theres smoke pouring out of the hood and exhaust. I thought it was a head gasket but I checked and there was oil squirting out of the feed line to the turbo. So checking it today in the daylight I knoticed the line was slit because it has been rubbing against the HF manifold for so long. I initially bought the stealth mode oil line kit from tunertoys. Great kit by the way. But all I need now is to replace the oil feed line from the block to the turbo. Its a 14b TD05H. I believe its a 3an.. Can someone verify that please. Also from the block with the same kit tell me if its the same sizing. I dont need the whole kit from tunertoys and am pretty much looking for the best deal so sizing is a must to know when researching.

Thankx.

The size of the line will depend on when you purchased your line. There was a change between -4/-3. Best option IMO is to just buy the line itself with the fittings from Stealthmode.

If you are having your own line made just get the ends correct, -3 or -4 for the line size isn't crucial.

1/8 at the block fitting and M12x1.25 for the turbo inlet. Both of these measurements can be found on the site right out in the open.
