The coolant lines can be plugged and, I believe, the turbo oil feed line is available from LMC truck for one.

Get a new oil feed line from one of the vendors on this site, its probably better anyways to make sure your new turbo is getting sufficient oil. As for the coolant lines, if you aren't going to be needing them then just plug the ports up. Most aftermarket turbos don't require it I guess. To be on the safe side though, I think its recommended that you cool down your turbo before shuttting it off idle it a few min. or thru a turbo timer...which is more convenient
