There is a small tube that comes from the back driver side of the block.
The line I think you are talking about is the oil return line.

actually as a matter of fact NON of the 2.3T's had a oil line of any type tapped into the oil pan, its tapped into the actual block. the oil feed comes from the drivers side rear of the head, the oil return goes into the block underneath the turbo. if your engine is tapped into the oil pan then it isn't an original turbo motor.
