Okay thanks, attaching some photos. I think I have answers to my first two questions as I found what I believe is a two digit year stamp on the front of the motor, pictured down and left of red dot. It says 84, which implies to me the motor was indeed swapped at some point for a California smog compliant motor, but the manifolds and turbo from the original motor were re-mounted. The car is a 1983.

That leaves the third question, which is where and how to route the excess oil leaving the valve cover, passing through the oil separator, and exiting the bottom of the air cleaner housing ?

I've tried to show with the pictures what I'm working with. I also lifted a picture from another thread showing the turbo drain and oil return nipple locations. My motor does not have the breather drain tube nipple.

Any thoughts or solutions much appreciated !
