Default no threads on the oil feed!!

i just bought a t3 turbo and the oil feed hole has no threads!! the two holes around the oil feed have threads like you can put a flange on it but not the oil feed hole is threadless. does anyone know where to get the oil feed flange from? i have seen them online in the past, but where?

Get a oil feed flange. You can tap it but you might run the chances of getting shavings in inside the feed hole.

do it right and tap it. Flanges leak and take gaskets.
