How do I rotate the housing on my TD04HL turbo!

Hi Guys,
am changing my VF-10 on CRX to a TD04HL, however the oil lines are in the wrong place, I need to rotate the housing, however I need to pull out a locating pin apparently, but I can't see any locating pin, has anyone done this before! thanks.

The pin is in the housings. Get it apart and you'll see, it's small but if you don't grind it off then when you put it back together the assembly won't go down straight. iirc it's under that V band clamp. Undo the clamp and carefully part the housings and you'll see it.

At least it was there when I did a td04L which is close to the HL except for the 13T wheel.

Cool, I have separated the units, was surprisingly easy, I ground down the pin, however I need some decent circlip pliers now, so that I can remove this massive circlip from the back of the compressor housing. so that I can move it to the correct position.

the compressor housing has a pin also.
