Above level mate but thanks for asking any questions mate as i am losing my ship with reasons.
No one way valve just hose mate but my next step is getting the correct oil drain fitting although supplied the incorrect one to begin with.
I have gone too far and may be chasing my tail but we saw oil coming out of turbo with no oil drain at all, just into container whilst engine running but could've been oil residue sitting in turbo already from past tests which is frustrating.
Here is a clear tube pipe installed test and its flowing.

Fwiw in the drain video. This is a clear tube, once oil hits the wall of clear tube it stays.
At the bottom is the oil hitting the barb so small amounts will come back "coating" the clear tube. That is not full of oil sitting at bottom, nor is top part either as you are seeing oil "splashing" "swirling" from the turbo.
However, oil drain fitting from turbo incorrectly supplied replacement is close to my last resort to be honest.
In fact, if that fails I have no idea what to do next?

Also, no you don't need a one way valve. You just want oil to flow the quickest way possible with as much volume you can give mate.
