Default oil fitting for T3... need a source

So on this T3 i got off a saab, the oil inleg a flat surface with two holes for bolts and a middle hole for oil... the middle hole for oil is threaded but only al little...

I think there should be a external threaded peice that i can thread the oil line into... this piece should have a center hole for the oil line that is threaded and two holes on either side of the oil line hole for the bolts - to bolt onto the turbo.

does anyone know what i'm talking about and where i could order one of these online nice and quick?

thanks...!

I don't think you need a flange for the inlet. The fitting should screw into the middle hole.

The pics shown in the for oulet, running to your oil pan. So you still need that piece. The inlet side, I just used an elbow fitting, it should thread right into the hole, no flange needed. You should be able to find some pics on here.

it's either threaded or not. In either case get an 1/8" NPT tap and either clean out the threads or cut new ones. An unthreaded feed hole in a saab T3 CHRA is 11/32" which is the proper size for a the NPT tap. The flange adapter is a waste of $15 and adds one more spot for a leak to occur.
