Default can i use fittings from a hardware store?

Can I use fittings from a hardware store? as in fittings like brass flare fittings on 14b turbo for the oil feed line and coolant line? if so what size fittings do i need for the oil feed line? and also the coolant? the reason i am asking cause i dont have all the coolant lines. i only have one for the coolant line (need another cant find one) and i have the one fro the oil but the guy broke the banjo bolt.. but can i use the fittings?

Yes, and remember to make your oil return a bit bigger then your oil feed.

MAke sure the threads on the fittings are the same as on your turbo.
