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

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

Thanks.
