broken piece! Where to get? (pictures might be a bit big)
okay, in a bad stroke of luck, we dropped my turbo on the floor. At first I didn't think too much of it, I didn't fall far. But under closer inspecting I found that the fall broke something. Its the fitting that connects to the oil line that goes to the oil pan. Pictures are worth a thousand words, so here to help you aid me better:
Picture of the entire assembly, the broken piece is near the left of the photo. Right next to the blue connector.
Okay, and here is a close up of the part. You can see a small crack in it.
It will leak oil if left in this condition, I've been to several performance places without much luck. Do any of you know I place I could get this part (even online)? I could fabricate one, my last stop a person gave me a fitting that matched up a bit (2 out of 3), but would need some holes to be drilled, and shaven off a bit to make it fit. Any body got some suggestions?

that's an oil drain flange. you cna pick it up for less than 20 bucks.
it depends on the fitting to the turbo, but there are 5/8" and 3/8" . I actually have a few for stock.

http://www.roadraceengineering.com has those flanges in stock I do believe.
wow~!
quick replies you guys! Thanks alot infamousRS and a lot to Flamenco-T for the aim and response as well. I appreciate it a lot. I'm going to try my luck at another turbo place, the places I went today were mostly V8 shops...I'm now armed with the correct name! Hopefully I'll be able to get it tommorow before my dad kicks up a fuss about the car not working for a long time!
Thanks again.
