Default Diesel Turbo on 5.7vortec

ok i got an old turbo out of a diesel water pump(dont ask) and since my truck is wreaked and is gonna be rebuilt engine and all im gonna put it on the motor just to see how much pickup i can get, it has no blowoff valve or anything so its all boost, but it uses oil for the lub and since i dont really want to drill and tap holes in my block and oil pan was wondering if there is an oil pump or somthing that i can put in a seperate reservoir to use for it, any ideas are welcome
