Bottom turbo mounting bracket for twins

I was wondering on the bottom turbo mounting bracket from source automotive for twins how the oil drains into the block. Because that piece of pipe just ends and doesn't go all the way up to the block.

From the bottom bracket

where the turbo bolts up there is an area where u bolt down to the turbo drain, its built right in, all u need is a gasket and two 10 mm bolts. From the bottom of the drain, dependin on ur truck, u just run it to either the frost plug, which is much easier, or u have to drill a hole in the oil pan, as i had to with my 96.. Look at the pic, and the J part of the bracket u see is actually the oil drain...

If u are runnin one of rips brackets

The bottom part of the drain will go towards the oil pan, and from their u just run a rubber line to the frost plug and thats it,

Once you pop out the plug put in a straight o-ringed nipple (available from sourceautomotive) and connect the two with a piece of high temp silicon hose.
