N20 pre fill or prime turbo oil feed line

Hi

I have been googling and can’t seem to find a definitive answer to my question. Do I need to pre fill the oil feed line on a turbo before installing it? Or would priming the engine be sufficient in filling the feed line before starting? I am keeping the turbo but replacing all the feed and drain lines. Would It be wrong to assume the residual oil in the old turbo should be enough to just prime the engine ?

Thanks,
