I figured you made that drain plug.. Too bad you did not ask or know I have 10 factory oem drains like that.. Ford was selling out idi parts and I purchased 11% of the stock on hand...

Dont condemn the turbo till you run it fully hooked up, as long as you didnt break a seal ring it should be fine after a little run time, thay do not 100% seal anyway.

And the reason the drain has to be downhill is the turbo is draining whipped oil at speed. Not an oil stream.
