Fp oil return fitting question

I just got off the phone with fp. I tried to get the 120 degree fitting that goes from the turbo down to the oil filter. They said that the fitting and line is 1 piece, and i have to pay $100 for it.

Now i had the line, but i guess the fitting was cut off... Is there any other alternative to use something else? Couldnt i find a "AN fitting" to get this to work?

get the line that goes from the right front side of the head with banjo bolt to the turbo not the oil filter, that is if you have a ball bearing turbo, journal bearing requires more oil pressure. Then use the oil filter housing outlet(access bolts you can just remove) for the oil pressure gauge. That's how my set up is. But the less individual parts the better for the oil system specially if your boosting over 30psi, my point get single line with the fitting attached, less chances of leaking do to the higher pressure in the oil system. And goes without saying bad thing will happen if that turbo starves of oil.

Thank you for the reply. I did not see this earlier. My problem if finding the correct fitting for the oil filter housing to the -4 line. Anyone have any insight on this?
