Default T3 oil drain

right picked up a bit of a project last night, and got a few miles down the road and developed a leak AA man got me back on the road with a quick fix but it isnt a permanent solution

turns out the t3 oil return to sump had developed a leak, i'm gonna order an oil compatible silicon elbow from samco or roose but i need to know the bore of the peiope required, for a standard T3 escort turbo.

car is at another friends place so cant get to the pipe to check it, just wondering if anyone on here knew what it might be, part is NLA from ford (theres one on ebay for £60 )

new piece of hose should be no more than £20 but i need to get the right size

many thanks

16mm pipe isn't it from the turbo IIRC, defo not 19mm, that's coolant sized pipe.
