When installing a turbo on a 2800 non turbo engine, where do you hook the oil line going to the turbo?

All the way along the right side of the engine block is the main oil galley. It has the oil pressure idiot light sender attached to it. There should be a plug or two to tap into all along the block. Bigger hole the better. Have you got the turbo drain line plumbed ??

Thanks Dr. There are 2 places, one has the light, both are small. There is a plug at the bottom of the engine block, right side right under them. I haven’t taken it out yet but though I could use that for the return? Don’t know if I can get it out, where do you suggest I go with the return??

those galley plugs are 1/8 pipe on my 426's and that's where the turbo feed is
