Default Well, car started up fine but....

I go around to the engine compartment to find oil spraying like a **** all over the block from the braided oil line to the turbo. Shut my car off real fast. so now, all the oil is all over my block and the ground.... Could the inlet to the turbo be plugged or the oil line just had a hole in it? I got it used.. I was already to run my car too Anybody else have this happen or is it just my luck. hope it didn't hurt the motor.

Is you turbo oil inlet threaded or does it require a oil inlet flange?

It's a greddy turbo kit for a 95 civic ex. It looks like the braided line threads on to a nipple but that could be part of the line since it doesn't have a swivel on that end. Looks like I'll have to pull the entire manifold back off just to get it off.
