That looks like the oil feed to the turbo. You can either bolt the oil feed to the turbo via the flange, or depending on the turbo, you can just thread the fitting right into the turbo.
That could be an aftermarket piece that bolts to the engine right above the oil filter though. If that's the case, then you don't need it either. Just drill and tap the factory piece for 1/8 NPT.
