Default oil drain locations

So i dont have my engine or any parts to mock something up right now but im planning my twin turbo build and i wanted to know what my options were for the drains. I had a single drain before on the front driver side oil pan right below and to the side of the crank pulley but i wasn't sure if there was enough room on the passenger side for a second one? I will be putting my alternator down on the passenger side as well so i will need to make sure i keep the A/C tensioner down there for the belt but wasn't sure if anyone had a picture or if they have used that spot before? Just trying to find my 2 spots for the twin turbo drains. Turbos will be mounted high with some up and forward headers.

Drain them into your front cam cover. Thats a very easy and cheap way.

Ict makes a front timing cover that has two an fittings welded on the bottom of the covering either side. It's pretty sharp. I'm currently in the op's situation but I really don't want to take off my timing cover and balancer. Hope that helps and bump for any other twin turbo drain locations.

My turbos will be in the front not in the sides though so not sure if that would work.

sure it would as long as your turbos are higher than the drain
