As in the pic where the oil feed comes out the the front of the block to the turbo(10 o'clock position from dizzy blanking plate IS the filtered oil, ie after the oil filter and therefor clean oil.



I should know this!!

Can anyone confirm please?

Yep, that is off the oil switch/gauge tapping and is filtered oil.

I believe the Metro Turbo had a banjo on the feed to the oil filter and therefore ran on unfiltered oil.

Hence the confusion.
