Default Turbo hose oil leak

Hi all, on investigating my oil leak earlier, I was surprised to see that it's not the return that goes into the sump that's leaking at all, it's this small banjo ended hose with the problem, it leaks instantly on start up, as you can see it's where the end is crimped on or however it's joined, and clearly visible at idle, I had blown it off with air about 15 seconds before I took this photo after starting the engine, i can't imagine how much worse it is under load, I'm currently using 1l of oil a week, anyone know what actual hose this is and even better, may have a part number?

Many thanks in advance.

That should be the oil injection pipe for turbo shaft lubrication...banjo bolt is fractured or the copper washers need replacing.

I was thinking that too v40t4r, but after cleaning everything down and starting the engine it's not coming from the banjo or the fitting, it's where the end is pressed onto the pipe itself.

Hose was hit with some quick steel at lunch time, worked fine apart from the smallest pinhole, so took the whole pipe off and did it properly this evening, sanded it all off and applied it better, it's worked so far, never ever taking one of those off with the engine in the car again, absolute pig of a job haha
