Oil returning from where? If I know that, I can look it up on the 'KATE'
EDIT Likely M10 or M12

i believe its M12x1.5..

one way to check, try threading a lug bolt into the hole. if it threads in only part way, its m12x1.25..

if its just the wrong size, then its m10x1.5
92 Jetta GLI - Black, 1.6D w/ GT2056V turbo..
86 GTI - 4 Door, Med Twilight Gray, Tow Machine..
86 Audi Coupe GT - Tornado Red, All Stock.. WRECKED.
89 Toyota 4Runner - Dark Grey Metallic, LIFTED!

Turbo: exhaust gasses go into the turbocharger and spin it, witchcraft happens and you go faster.

Ooop's sorry - from the turbo. It's a banjo fitting, threaded into the block.

Thanks.
