Is priming of the oil supply line necessary?
If the lines are flushed and cleaned (how?) and the oil pump works, wouldn't the line fill instantly upon start-up?
Similarly, wouldn't the drain line just work?
Assembly grease in the turbo's bearings would prevent wear during this brief time period.

If priming is required you'd think a port would've been built into the side of these pipes.
