Shouldn't need to be that tight, are you sure it's leaking from the join tho??
Not leaking from a split pipe or anything??
The oil return pipe is not under any pressure, oil just dribbles out the turbo and down the pipe.
The pipe does need to be orientated downward tho, otherwise oil builds up and can piss out.
The other source might be leaking from the core or leaking from the oil feed (which is under pressure)
If the oil return is kinked, obstructed or has a shit route it can backup oil and leak out.
