I have start to clean parts from the engine . Everything is so messy greassy !
While putting this engine turbo , I want to make it as clean as possible and the most important , LEAK FREE ! Will it be possible ? I will change pretty much every gasket/seal/oring that pass through my hand. 
For the turbo oil feed , thread was added to the banjo bolt. (Fitting is 1/4 ntp to An4) 
Misc part from the engine refreshed with satin black . 
I also wrinkle paint my valve cover with great result! When the paint will be dry , I will sand the the paint off the line and BMW!

Lately I have dismantle the engine partially in order to install the new Oem head gasket and ARP head stud
I have to be honest, I’m little scare to put back together everything and make it run ! Especially all the cooling and vaccum line . But I keep in mind that I will have my actual engine (one in the car) to help me ! 
First time to me to open an engine . Is this mark (cross marks) on the cylinder mean that the engine has been refresh or it can from the factory? Reminder , this engine only avec 161000km ! Head look very clean !
