Default Turbo oil feed : Homemade gasket? Banjo bolt oil flow?

The gasket I received leaked really easily and ripped. Can I make my own out of a soda box like I did with the return and my bov?

Also, I have a journal bearing turbo. I want to run a banjo bolt straight into the feed (I wont need the gasket)

I know journal bearing turbos should not use a restrictor. Should the banjo bolt flow oil through my turbo at a safe rate? I'm sick of these ****ing leaks with the flange and gaskets I have/had.

I have a precision 4431e t3 .48 ar 60 cold stage 3 wheel
Thanks

It just has an 1/8th NPT inlet most likely. You can get the fittings you need from ATP turbo for banjo or regular.
