I have a minor (and I mean very minor) leak in what I believe is the AN hose to the check valve. Its so minor I stopped caring about it. It barely produces a drip and it never collects since the heats just burns it off immediately.

I had a leak last year in the summer. That one was pretty bad. It was one of the hoses. This year I have another leak and I have yet to find out where it is coming from. My guess is that it is from the hose again. I am not sure why it keeps leaking after each winter. I need to upgrade my hoses to higher quality lines.

If I remember properly the prototype car smoked. Apparently there is enough residual oil pressure when you turn the car off to flood the turbo and turbo drain reservoir. Some was getting past the seals and obviously burning off. He added the check valve in the feed line to prevent that.

Depends on how your check valve is being used. If it's being used to prevent back flow, then I agree with you. If you are just taking advantage of the spring to shut off flow when there is just the pressure remaining when the car is off then you would put it there.
