Greddy turbo Gs-r oil return line ?
Can anyone post a pic of the engine and how they mounted the oil line. Cause the way i did it caused the valve cover to get burnt which now has a chunk missing out of it. Also the line hit the wires to the fan and melted them, so now the left fan doesn't come on anymore.
Any pics would be appreciated

I think you're talking about the feed line...the return line shouldn't be anywhere near your valve cover. I routed mine behind the power steering pump...just pulled the bracket off and put it behind the bracket. Holds it steady, doesn't pinch it. I just ran it along with the power steering hose and back benind the intake manifold. Seems to do pretty well over there.

I have an idea. When I was going to school to be an A&P mechanic, we used some sort of teflon wrap for lines that might get chaffed. does anyone know when you can buy this teflon wrap?

I check the hose every once in a while and it looks fine still. The oil feed line doesn't feel hot to the touch....just lukewarm.

Firesleeve is the orange stuff coming down the side of the valve cover from the firewall to the turbo center section. It's a fiberglass braid with silicone outer sheathing.
I use the Aeroquip firesleeve, but I know Goodridge has their own good stuff.
