You can get a new oil feed pipe from minispares. I think its the goodridge one, or you can a local hydarulics place to make one up for you. The return you just need a 90 degree oil resistant hose. You can get the return plate that goes on the back of the block from smiffys bits if you want a shiny one. And i think DSN retrosport do one but dont quote me on that.

No worries that oil feed pipe from mini spares is a bit costly. So I'd try a local form. If you search on here you can find what size/threads you need.

A picture of what you have will help. For example have you got the turbo half of the oil drain casting still attached?

Nothing is impossible it just costs more and takes longer.
