Default is it ok to run oil feed line under/next to oil pan

is it ok to run my oil feed line under the turbo, between the oil pan and tranny upwards to the T in the back of the block? will this pose any problems? and does it matter which way the L shaped adapter for the feed line on the turbo faces up or downward?

it should work. There is pressure through the line ... it is not like the return line which works through gravity

Isn't the oil in the pan the same as the oil in the line? you'll be fine

The only problem I forsee with that is that you might have to take the turbo off if you need to take off the line. Mine was leaking at first so I actually used a 3 inch brass extension to bring it forward so that I could troubleshoot the leaks, and now Im too lazy to change it.
