The case still needs more machining before a good cleaning so no one bag on how tarnished it looks. AL just discolors after time, mine will probably end up flat black just so it stays pretty longer.
Here is a picture of the oil return line tapped for 3/8 NPT.

Custom T5 oil fill block off plate. I made this out of some thick flat plate AL sheet. Tapped the center for an oil temp sensor (normal T1 sump plate unit, 14x1.5mm). I think it turned out really well! Much nicer than the off the shelf aftermarket junk. Not the best picture. Of course painted the outside flat black.

The devil is in the details. Measure twice cut once. Sweat the small stuff. If it is worth doing it is worth taking the time to do right. blah blah blah
