Hey, I've got a td05 turbo that I am thinking about using, I noticed that it has 3 holes for the oil feed and drain, but I am confused as to which is which Feed/Drain and why there is a third hole? Here's a pic of the turbo & manifold. I think the feed should be on the top of turbo when mounted and the drain on the bottom, but I don't know what the third hole is for, should I just plug it? http://www.azht.net/forum/attachment.php?attachmentid=47671&stc=1&d=1227681652

Also, I think the wastegate is missing or half missing, there is a flap inside the exhaust side of the turbo that has a lever on it on the outside of the housing that flips it open or closed, but nothing hooked to it, it just swings open and closed.....isn't there supposed to be some kind of canister that works off of vacuum pressure to pull/push that valve open and closed? Sorry for the noob questions, I am still learning.
