Default Turbo oiling questions

Where the oil block off plate goes is a very very tight area for me. The regular factory block off plates (recirulating kind & oil cooler feed kind) will not fit due to space.

Which one of the holes is "oil out" the one closest to the rear of the engine or the foward one?
Can I tap the "oil out" and block off the other?
Since I have to run a remote fiter setup- Can I just block off both of these holes and feed my turbos from somewhere else?-
Or is it bad to not have that oil block off recirulating if I just blocked off both?

Thanks!

This is what I trying to find out- can I block this off with a flat piece of metal?

Do not put a block off plate over the 2 holes.
The oil leaves the oil pump and comes out one hole and goes in the other and pass through
the filter and oils the motor.

If you block the 2 holes so that the oil can't get from one to the other save your self the trouble of installing the motor and hall it to the scrap yard, that's where it's going to end up.
