TURBO HELP: Need oil return line for HT3B

Hey guys,

So truck is torn apart right now for new suspension install and while it's all blown apart I'd like to redo the oil returns for my compound turbos. I currently have HE341 over HT3B.

The problem is that the kit I have is a ty design with both oil returns from the turbos joining into into one then dumping into the factory location. They've been leaking since the day I bought the truck and from what I've read I believe it's due to lack of flow with these joint oil returns. I plan to split the returns up with one dumping into the factory location and the second to dump into the forward port which is currently blocked with a freeze plug.

I'm pretty sure that I've located all the parts I need to accomplish this with the exception of an oil return flange & gasket for my lower turbo which is an HT3B. Can anyone help me source this part?

Below are some links to what I've found that may or may not work for the HT3B but I'm not 100% sure?

Viewing search results for "Oil Return"
RacePartSolutions - Fast Parts At Discount Prices

Also found these but they're on a D-Max specific site so not sure:
T3/T4 Upper Oil Drain at Turbo
Billet Lower Oil Drain Fitting, Turbo

Also if anyone can point me to a support bracket for an HT3B other than CrazyCarl's I'd appreciate it.

Thanks!!!

You ever find the oil drain for the ht3b..I'm looking for the same thing..do you have to use the flange and gasket or can you just thread a fitting into the drain hole?? If you must use the flange where would you get it?? I've found a few 3/4 npt fittings with rolled hose ends but not sure if that will suffice..any help would be appreciated..
Thanks
