Default Check valve location and where to buy?

Rear mount kit here.... STS instruction says at oil inlet on turbo. Ive heard here to use one on the return line. Just would like some clarification before I get everything hooked up. Thanks

page 47 on sts instruction

Check the operation of the check valve at the turbocharger oil inlet, it should not leak when not running.

im doing a custom one myself. A check valve is a must on the feed side. i would assume a foot or so just before the turbo feed flange.

As for the Drain side, im still wondering about this too. Im running a cooler so im not sure if i need a drain check valve.
