Just drill and tap the oil cooler feed block and get you oil from there. The return port would be preferred, but really doesn't make much difference.

As for you water lines, you can get a ford heater hose T that is 5/8 through and 3/8 on the T. Put those in you heater hoses and run them to the turbo fittings. It doesn't matter which way you hook them up, it will flow fine either way.
