Default oil return line 5/8 ID

I got the hose fitting on my turbo and was told to use high pressure/high temp. fuel line and connect in to the welded pipe in my pan. Ive called NAPA, CARQUEST, Advanced AUto, and even a few hydrolic hose places. No-one has 5/8 ID high temp fuel or diesel line. Any ideas. Everything else is done with the turbo setup.......just need the piece of hose. thanks

Use any hose that is rated for oil. The oil drain is not high pressure. Hell, it should be zero pressure.

or just buy some braided line, it will hold up better over time

I think i used heater hose before I used SS... if the line is reinforced (you can see strains of like string when you cut it) then it is rated for what you need.
