Oil to BB turbo

I am trying to run the oil feed to my turbo and the stock feed from the head became stripped and is now plugged off. Is there other spots on the head to pull oil from? I see a couple plugs on the drivers side, is one of them an oil feed plug?

Only the OEM port should be used. Otherwise you need to use the oil filter housing.

Are you talking about the little allen plugs at the end of the head (cam sensor side)? I think they'll be too small. And they may not be accessible once everything else is installed. I had to find pics of bear heads to see them..

You could try it. As long as its oil, I'm pretty sure that just the galley for the cam journals, which is the same as the turbo feed port.

you could cover it with a rag and crank the motor, See what comes out. Usually when you pull plugs like that, if they're coolant plugs, coolant will come out..

I will use that gallery plug, on the same oil gallery that is used by the OE oil line... it is right under the exhaust cam sensor.
