Well.

My Brother And I Have Started A Dream Of His And Been Puttinga 86 Grand National Back Together. This Has Been A Great Project Since Day One, But We've Run Into A Problem He Got A Turbonetics Cpt60. And Now We Can't Find The Oil Line To The Block We Were Told The Line Connected To The Right Side Near The Vavle Cover, But Nothing...

So Can Some Please Help Us, We're Sitting Here Waiting To Finish This To Get The Car Running To Night.. This Was The Last Thing. Well For Now....... And Thank You
 
the oil feed line connects to to a block fitting on the side of the block where the oil sending unit is..

Phil beat me too it.

As he said, located on the passenger side front of the motor, just to the side and below the water pump you should see the brass tee with a sending unit screwed into it. The factory oil feed line screws into the side of this brass tee. It is a tapered flare tube line that is very specific to the 86-87 model Turbo Buicks. If you don't have the line, trust me, you will not find one at any store. And very unlikely that you will find one at your local GM Parts department in the morning.

This picture is looking straight down from the top between the turbo and the head.

This picture is looking underneath the turbocharger towards the front of the passenger side of the motor.

And this picture is of the factory brass tee where the oil pressure sending unit and the turbo oil feed line screw into.

Oil Pressure sending unit screws into the front, and the turbo oil feed line screws into the side.
Hope this helps a little, and btw, welcome aboard.
