easy... a fitting or flange with a 1/16" hole.

You can buy a steel 1/8NPT fitting and weld it closed, then drill a hole But many people offer it.

You don't even need to do that.Tap a fitting out to 5mm.Get a 5mm grub screw,drill the centre with a 1.5mm drill bit and screw the grub screw into the fitting you just tapped out.The oil feed pipe will stop the grub screw from working its way out when it's screwed onto the fitting

You could figure it out just be the name.

This piece restricts the oil going into the turbo. This reults in lower oil pressure being feed through the turbo. The oil pressure that our imports operate on is about 4-5 TIMES more than the turbo unit calls for.
