Correct me if I'm wrong here. I'm sorting out oil lines for my TB42 strait gas turbo set-up.

Can any1 tell me what the other bungs in the side of the block are for?
I have in my head a distant memory of working on a standard VL turbo. that the oil feed, drain and water come from the block.
I understand the top one will be oil feed to turbo, But could either of the other 2 be used for an oil drain on a high mount set-up.
This would prevent removal of sump to put oil drain in.

The oil pressure feed is at the rear under exhaust port no.6 Oil drain to the sump(have to make) close to the pan rail, no pressure. One water hose, pressure can come from the factory water drain plug, just forward of the oil feed.
