I purchased an S13 Blacktop recently and im not sure what turbo it has on it. I was told it was a Journal Bearing T28 off a S14 SR20det but dont know what to look for to confirm. Below is a picture of what i have. If anybody can tell or if i need to post more pics let me know please.

Also i was starting to install my SS Braided Lines. The first hard line i removed was the outside line. When i disconnected it, there was oil on it. It could have been just some residue on the threads but it looked oily to me. I thought the inner and outer ports were coolant, and the top and bottom were oil. If any one can clarify this or correct me please do. Thanks!
Pictures of the line I removed:
The outer port pictured here goes to the water neck, or to the block??

The 90 degree fitting on the outer coolant line will not clear the wastegate rod. I have heard rumors of people flipping the rod upside down. Has anyone tried this? and is it safe to do? Or is there a better solution to this problem. Thanks for the help everyone!!
