Hey mate. your standard bov should only have the 2 pipes coming off it, a small one facing towards the inlet plenum and a large one pointing to the passenger side of the car. The small goes to the rear of the plenum and the other connects to the return pipe directly in front of it. If it ain't obvious (and if he got defected) he has probably removed the return pipe, so you'll need that too. If the one heading to the inlet plenum isn't obvious then is it an aftermarket plenum as well? I hope these photos help.

Ok, is has a manual boost controller witch is plumbed into the plenum where the BOV pipe should be, the larger return has just been pluged up. am i able to put a 3 way valve on the smaller pipe and plum the BOV into it?

I dunno. I would remove the boost controller and get a new piece of hose, return the standard BOV to factory (as in the pics) for the boys in blue. Then if you want the boost controller put it in the correct place. Try this thread: Installing a manual boost controller for beginners

      What should I do next to hold the head on

      Possibly avoid using a Cometic one unless the deck/head surface are perfectly flat. I did have a look just then and forgiving gaskets such as Tomei or Nitto don't exist for the FJ20, however the Bar-Tek or Kameari ones look good and might do the trick.

      Because pipe threads for pipe things. M threads for bolt things. Throw some teflon sealant onto it and dust your hands off knowing you did the right thing, instead of going twice around the block to achieve a result using the wrong things. Of course, all of these solutions are ignoring the fact that the minimum thread pitch we're talking about here is 1.25mm, with the 1/4" in NPT or BPS being out around 1.4mm. You will need to know that the boss you're tapping has enough thickness for at least a few threads. That's one of the reasons that 1/8" is commonly used - because the pitch is <1mm. And why would you look to use 1/4" NPT in a BSP country anyway? Ugh.

      Just throwing around ideas, does it need to be in the compressor cover? Why not the hot side piping?

      1/8NPT drill size = 8.7mm. Since the hole got messed up by me, it’s probably around 9mm.    So 1/4” NPT would be next step. A drill size of around 11mm would be preferred there which is not way of my M12 (drill 10.5mm and tap M12 threads)
