I would hate to see the amount of oil mist that the turbo would draw in hooking up the valve covers to the inlet of the turbo. But maybe I should try it out and see. It'd be easy to do.

If you do then just leave it atmospheric vent till you finish your 3L. I pulled my intercooler off every few months to clean it of oil because I remembered how much was sucked in before when the pistons went, but it didn't have any. The IC core was very clean. Once a year cleaning with brake parts cleaner to pull out any oil condensate would have been sufficient. Really, I'm serious! Of course, I'm speaking for a good sealing engine with stock rings and pistons. Former owner of '99 CSVT - Silver #222/2760 356/334 wHP/TQ at 10psi on pump gas!
