Help tapping an oil pan

[Vovchandr]

Long story short I have a stock oil pan that I need to tap for an oil return line from my turbo. It is an aluminum pan that I would rather tap than weld but I am unsure what type of fitting to look for and where to go for that type of fitting. The last time I did it I had a shop weld the pan but the guy did it in the wrong place. I am thinking it would be a 5/8th barb fitting with threads on the other end. I would imagine that it could be a copper fitting but am unsure please help if you have good information. And no I am not going to just buy an oil pan that is tapped because of the layout of my stystem I need it to be in a specific spot.

Is it off the car?

Just drill and tap it.

A few places around here to get the bung like Shako but you cab always stop in Ace Hardware and similar to get a barb fitting and then get a high temp blue hose after.
