Do the oil inlet, and outlet on the turbo have to be perfectly straight?

I am at the point where i need to mount my flange, on my jgs manifold, and i was wondering when mounting the turbo do the oil fed, and drain holes have to be perfectly straight up and down, or can it be angled alittle? i think i dcided i am going to go top mount, so i will mounting the turbo with the oil and oil drain holes with a slight angle affect anything?

You can rotate the center section of the turbo so that you can get them pretty vertical.
