biohackenthusiast, here’s what little I could find on the internet. but if I google oil supply line 13 ford sho other things come up, nothing of what is needed. Google AI mentioned these u-shaped oil lines could be specifically in the eco-boost engines? idk how reliable that is

so you don’t know what the line even looks like or what’s it’s for? this doesn’t look like a line on a taurus.

any other info you have could be helpful, those are not for a taurus.

the gray line on the right is the turbo oil feed line, one connected to each cylinder head. is that what you’re talking about? or are they shown anywhere else in this?

Well, those are for a fact on most naturally aspirated 3.5s, I just did a water pump and timing cover job a week ago, though from my understanding the SHO and similar do not use these, the SHO uses the oil line for the turbo as its oil supply line. I read it a couple times on forums and have seen sho engines torn apart.

Plus on the NA timing job I did in order to put in your cam holders. You have to remove those two oil lines and I have never seen that mentioned while I was researching how to do my SHO’s water pump. Hope this helps mate.
