Hi everyone, I have a metro turbo mini I'm currently TRYING to rebuild and I'm struggling to find a replacement for the oil pipe that comes off the dizzy? It seems to have a different end then all the ones I have seen. And ideas?

That looks like either the servo vacuum pipe or the oil pipe that runs to the filter across the block. Neither have anything to do with the Dizzy. 
 

both are NLA new but there are alternatives.

It's the oil feed to the turbo. It connects to the engine where the oil pressure switch does with a banjo bolt. 

 

It's only likely to line up if you're using a complete Metty Turbo setup, with a T3 turbo. Many replaced it with a braided hose

You could probably put your own together for less
