What return line on the head?
Nice and that provides enough pressure?
Have you drilled a hole in the sump?

The return line is the black tube you can see just above the thermostate

It runs infront of the block giving less room to fit the turbo

That's a breather. It's supposed to vent crankcase pressure to the head as to not impede oil return to the sump. On later adaptations of the engine it was removed. I'm going to remove mine, as it always pops out. I remember panicking that I didn't have the right pipes for it when I rebuilt the engine - until I saw a c2 vts which doesn't even have it from the factory!

Sump has a tube welded in, for the return, yes.

The top one is the breather, and only vents air in the intake.
There's none on the other cover causes the oil cap to leak
The JP4 got one in each cam cover (i've installed those on my car)



But thank you for taking the time to answer

Nevermind, you are correct - it's for the crank (just like you said)

My mistake, the language barrier is not in my favor xD
