Default Dripping oil... dip stick??

Well it seems to be leaking quite a bit. Not sure from where, but i noticed that after i reinstalled the turbo, i didnt reinstal the dip stick tube properly, well iput it in better the second time around BUT i couldnt get it perfect, some of the Oring is bulging out., Would much oil leak out of there??

any tips on how to seat it better?

Do you have the plastic spacer on it to keep the o-ring in place?

See item #5:

It's a plastic spacer ring that pushes down on the o-ring to keep it in place.

hmmmm, I dont remeber and plastic spacer like that. BUT, the tube end didnt look exaclty like that one either, it had a slight step on it where the oring sat, then the flange part. I was going to put a new oring on it, but the only one i had was a bit tight and would roll off.
