Oil Feed Fitting? (Want to replace banjo bolt)

I'm looking to eliminate the banjo bolt that feeds the turbo from the head with a 90-degree fitting. The only problem is that I can't seem to find the right fitting and was wondering if anyone knows where i can order one at. The fitting would look similar to this, but would thread into the head and accept a -4AN oil line. I believe the threads for the oil feed into the head are 10mm x 1.25 pitch




Worst case I'll order one of these that is a straight fitting, but I prefer a 90-degree if possible:http://www.atpturbo.com/Merchant2/me..._Code=ATP-OIL1


Any help would be appreciated

I was surprised they didn't have it either; I know the fitting exists as I have seen it on some turbo setups on here. Just need to find where to buy it.

ATP got back to me w/ a solution that will do what I'm looking for. They said to combine these two parts and I will be able to have a 90-degree for my oil feed. This may help somebody else looking to eliminate the banjo bolt w/ crush washers on their setup.

Combine this:http://www.atpturbo.com/Merchant2/me..._Code=ATP-OIL1

I would just use a banjo fitting that has an -AN thread on the end of it, tis what I did and its worked well forever. I actually have a 3 or 4 still around if you want it.

I'm actually trying to avoid the banjo fitting as it requires the use of crush washers and I'm trying to avoid that setup. I appreciate the offer though

Edit:

Didn't see your not on the stock turbo.

The stock fittings are 10mm and 12mm for the head and turbo respectively.
