What do people do when their oil return on the sump is the phase 1 style (smaller;)) and the oe hose is too big?

I've got a massive oil leak from the hose to the sump, basically because I've over tighten the jubilee to compensate and its split the oe 90degree pipe!

the diameter of the hose I guess is around 25mm, and the sump metal pipe is around 15mm (guesstimating:D)

I have had a look on Mikes site, but from what I can tell, the phase 1 pipe is from turbo to metal return leading to the sump?!

Samco (or it could've been SFS) do a 90deg' reducer pipe. Probably be able to find a cheaper Chinese equivalent on Ebay.
