Default smoke from return line

sup guys i will take mroe pics tommrow, but the tuner today told me that my oil return line that goes into the pan is causing the oil to come back thru the turbo and cause the smoke, he was 100 % sure.. here is the oil pan pics of where it was tapped

these are the only pics i have at the moment

he was telling me that the line wasnt angled down completly so it was backing up... any ideas on what i can do differently?

Is your turbo's cartridge a perfect 90 degrees? Meaning is the turbo drain vertical?

I had mine tapped as high as possible. Make sure your drain line goes directly downward off your turbo.

You do not want any portion of the line to channel up.

Oil is drained by gravity
