Hardest part of turbo r/r is the oil feed line...as you now know.
You can snake it out if you push the hoses out of the way and slide the hardline towards the driver side and pull it out the front. Easier said than done, but if careful and patient, you will succeed. I sort of remember flipping it over to get the turbo connection end up and towards the driver side(but not 100% certain).
Try to remember the sequence so you can put it back.
One trick is to use a tie strip to pull the upper radiator hose up against the intake runners. This will give you alot more operating room. Will help greatly putting the banjo bolt back in.
Finally, I would consider a new oil line. Maybe try the clean out first, but any crystallized oil can destroy your new turbo quickly.
