Can i run my oil return for turbo to a valve cover?

^^^I'm going to attempt this without removing the oil pan. Picked up the -10 an to 1/2 npt.
What sealant works best PTFE, high temp rtv(right stuff), or blue loctite?
I think my turbo is high enough for timing cover return but I'd rather be safe than sorry.

Speaking from experience, doing it on the car is doable, but I would not recommend it. There really is a ton of metal going to get inside your oil pan. It is such a large hole, and there are so many shavings produced, you can't help but get some in the oil. I even took my oil control tray in the sump out to celan out the shavings under it. If your confident that the filter will pick them all up, which may be the case and all is good then I'd go for it. But I guarantee your will get some inside the oil pan no matter how careful you are.

An engine needs to stay to stay surgically clean inside, like the human body.
school and holidays, they let me out on good behavior for a couple weeks
