    Just now got back from driving it a bunch and it didn't smoke once, so at the risk of jinxing myself, I'm going to say it's fixed. Funny I did a head swap and head gasket etc. and it was just a hose.

    Lesson for anyone doing a turbo - don't have any low points in your oil drain!!!

    Im glad you fixed the problem, I learned something new from it so, thank you. Great idea with the clear hose too, very creative. Live and learn.

    I had a truck come in with heater hose a while back, I ended up replacing it with oil cooler hose. The heater hose was soft and spongy and had some soggyness to it from oil seeping through it, you like my tech words lol.
