I can help you visualise the water side of things. The head drain plug for water...it has a banjo fitting and hollow bolt to carry colant via a factory metal tube to or from the turbo under the head.

So where does the coolant pressure line come from? Cheers

This will give you enough information to do the job
Please note you will have to find a piece of pipe to serve as an oil return pipe

Into a pipe on the back of the thermostat.
Some people have Tee'd it into the cabin heater return hose

You really need that water return pipe to feed into the thermostats bowl area so that any steam bubbles go up through the open thermostat and on to the radiator - and preferably to the overflow reservoir .
