Are you sure you have a OEM line? I would expect the section around the fitting to be too distorted to provide a good measurement -- which is why I took a fresh sample 20mm up the tube.
Mine is from the 1980 W126 300SD that blew a piston. I'll double check my measurements.

Mine came from a 617 Engine in a123 Chassis Car from in the Junk Yard; I do not know what year or even if it was an engine with a Turbo.
It look like an OM tubing but I have no way to know for sure.
The Oil Pressure Gauge line on my Mercedes is still intact so I cannot measure the ID on that.
I cut the tubeing a took the Oil Pressure Gauge Fitting in order to figure out an adapter for hooking up a Bypass Oil filter.
I took the measurments about 1-1/4 inch above where the Tubing is shoved over the Barb.
