Does anyone know for sure what the correct banjo bolt is for a VF35?

I've just bought a VF35, which is a sleeve bearing turbo, so was expecting to see a fairly big oil feed hole, but it's only about 1.5mm. I'm wondering if it's the correct bolt. I thought the small holes were for the roller bearing turbos only.

The best info I can find is in this thread:
22B Bulletin Board: The definitive Turbo oil banjo bolt/restrictor thread


Problem is the info is contradatictory. The 2nd picture in the thread shows the exact bolt I have, which according to the guy who posted it, is the same bolt Roger Clark sell for the VF35. Problem is, the next picture in the thread shows 2 bolts and the one on the left is said to be a banjo bolt from subaru for the VF35 and the hole is much much bigger.

Don't know what I need!!

Will either be okay?

swifty.....!

hi mate the one on the left is for the top oil feed into the turbo (i know this as i have my old vf35 sat at the side of me) the other is the oil feed from the block

Oh, now I get it!

I just need to make sure the one in the block is the larger diameter one. The one in the turbo is small (1.5mm I measured).
