Oil Filter Housing Feed Routing?

Was wondering how you guys are routing the oil line for those using the straight from the filter housing method on stock based turbos? Thanks

For the most part I followed this. I made a few changes, but mostly I tried to avoid moving parts and hot areas.

Don't use tape when it comes to anything going to or from the turbo. Use a liquid sealant, it's available at any decent big box parts store. The absolute last thing you want is for little strands of tape to start floating around in that closed system.
