Yes you can use the ultra copper.Make things easier if you have to pull it back apart some day.
As far as the uppipes.Go with a bellowed set.They eliminate the donut gaskets.Diesel Innovations - Products

If you are taking about the clamp that holds the Y to the turbo.I used a air chisel and gently taped the clamp and it poped loose.

This sleeve I used my wire welder to weld the end to close it off.Then I reinstalled the sleeve.The other sleeve has a closed end.

yea it worked out great...just one question though, since i deleted the ebpv now, and it has all new o-rings on the petalstool and turbo...what could possibly leak oil from that region of the motor.

Is there oil still sitting in the engine valley? I didn't clean mine out and I have a steep driveway and the oil ran out for a wile.Drove me nuts trying to find a leak,just to a quick wash with the pressure washer to fix it.
Check the plugs on the oil rails for the hpop.Also if you have a HPX line it could be leaking.The hpop itself could be leaking also.
Sorry for the slow reply.Been very bizzy.

it hasn't leaked since, i notice two little drips but it was from the drain holes on the bell housing which i think just got oil build up from the turbo leaking...i used about a gallon of degresser and the hose and washed out the engine are and scrub the tranny clean on the lift and washed it out..so far nothing at all...thanks for all the help everyone.

EBPV leak
Brad
CAN THIS BE EXPLAINED IN MORE DETAIL.
I also installed a 1.00 exhaust housing while the turbo was out.
I did not plug in the valve after I put the turbo back in because the valve was gone and I didn't want it to rob the turbo of oil.
I have noticed about a 50* drop on my EGT.And the truck pulls better on hills.
If you guys see anything I have done wrong let me know.
