need a fitting to make oil feed line for turbo work

that about sums it up. i got the super "b" all bolted on and the factory oil feed line fitting is too large! is this a common problem or should i have known when i orderd the turbo? is there a reducer fitting i can get or do i need a whole new feed line?

I thought they'd all be the same but I guess the schwitzers may be different. I remember when I first changed turbos after my h1c, I loosened the fitting off and thought I had to get an adapter for the new turbo. The H1c still had the factory paint on it and I didn't realize there was another fitting in there cuz the paint was covering up everything and I thought it was fixed to to the turbo, then I realized it was a fitting so I had t break the paint loose and take it out and its fit in every turbo I've used so far (4)...Just had to change an O-ring on it when I put this aurora on.

Glad that was it, that was my experience with it and thought it may be the problem.
