I went down a similar path to Jayc72 in the first thread with the brake banjos. Very elegant. Unfortunately, -4 banjos in the 90* configuration are hard to come by, so I suggest using a -3 to -4 coupler just after.
http://www.summitracing.com/ is your friend. Go to "Online Store" and hit the plumbing section. More hose ends and adaptors than you can shake a wastegate rod at. You'll have to be somewhat creative in how you search, but if someone makes it, they've got it.
Often times, using the search engine near the top of these pages (on the blue bar) will produce a wealth of knowledge. For example, entering greddy oil lines turned up those two threads I linked to near the top, and a wealth of other data.

Sadly, the only M10x1.5 to -(x)AN adaptor that Summit sells is aluminum.

Ok, I'm impressed.
Somehow I doubt I could weld something that small, keep it straight, and get good penetration, without burning a hole through the damn thing and filling the passage with slag.

In all seriousness, I appreciate the offer, but I'll stick with the Banjo fitting for now- no sense changing what works. Just wish I'd have thought of your idea first.
