I don't think you can. It has to go into the the HPOP cover and
stick up into the bottom of the turbo. Maybe someone
will have a better idea.But as far as I can tell you have to
lift the tubo up to get it in place.

the turbo oil drain pipe sits under the turbo. the turbo has to plug into it. also, the turbo oil drain pipe will curve off where it will plug into the HPOP cover. the turbo has to come out before u can replace the turbo oil drain pipe. also, tat will mean the alternator, cac tube, etc. has to come out before u can get the turbo out. it's not tat hard, it just requires patience.

josh, removing the alternator from the alternator mount just makes it easy to "roll" the turbo into that spot to lift it outta the way. u dont have to unplug the alternator. u should be able to just shift it out of the way. tats what i did when i did my egr delete.

He has an 06, so, he may not need an updated drain tube. That's when they upgraded them. Not sure on the exact build date for the change though.
