Default return oil line dilema

just installed my oil line kit, with the car on jack stands. the angle on the line is really wierd and the turbo sits so low, that the return flange is about 3in. above the oil pan. the hose ss hose is bent at the oil pan at a slight downward angle and then upwards to the turbo. i know that when i lower the car off the jack stands the oil is gonna drain into the return line causing a little puddle to sit there. i estimate from the top of the puddle to the turbo is about 2in.
my question is, is the constant oil in the line gonna cause a problem, or is it gonna be ok.

your oil pan isnt FULL of oil, just the bottom of it. if you tapped your pan on the top of the pan you should be fine. post some pics though
