have a s13 blacktop. was changing somethings dealing with the turbo when noticed my oil feed fitting into the block was loose. and pulled on it and was easily able to come out. searched and came up with this solution, wanted to ask and make sure im in the right path to solve this problem.

buy a 12x1.25 3AN fitting

i had the same problem as you but completely striped the whole inside of the oil feed fitting .... don't remember the exact fitting but did the same thing your trying to do hasn't leaked for over a year gl .oh i also upgrade the oil line to steel braided one

where'd you order yours from? and what else did you buy or did you just thread it in? also does it matter if it has a restrictor or not??
