• I thought AAZ's had the return fitting on the block. The return fitting on a 1.6td oil pan is something weird. After trying to locate an adapter that would fit, I ended up cutting mine off and welding a -8 AN 90 degree fitting onto it.

  You are correct..
  
  I will be using a AEROQUIP Aerospace teflon hose assy with the Intergal firesleeve , 30 % smaller than a rubber s/s braid but with the silicone cover good for 15 minutes at 2500 open flame...
  
  temp range -65 to 550
