If You are in a bad spot them just re-use the T's and put the new seals and return hose. Make sure You use baseline or some lubricant on the seals and a deep socket to sit them, they should pop in.

jd recovery how did you the the one that goes across the motor to connect the two sides i have it coming off the injector by the turbo i think its number 8 none of the other ones leak just the one i think is number 8 under the turbo. keeps literally blowing out a small pin hole which can drain a 1/4 tank in like 15 miles

might be a clog in the return line. is the switching valve working? what about a crimped return line? also is your crossover line run in front of of the air intake plenum or behind it?
