Not enough, unfortunately. By putting the inlet as close to the bottom as possible, the engine height and weight is reduced  and the engine doesn't have to carry unnecessary oil.

I don’t have a eco boost but do keep an eye on what goes on with these. The oil pick-up mesh has a metal plate over it with a smaller hole in. It looks to me like that plate holds the belt debris up against the mesh . If that plate was not there would the debris not accumulate so much as it would get washed away by the sideways sloshing of oil? What is the purpose of that plate, is it to try and keep more oil there for the pickup if you go round a corner violently? If that plate was removed ( cut away) would it help?   See pic where he’s sticking the screwdriver in to scrape out debris

The pump creates suction. I expect the purpose of the smaller hole is in some way to control or regulate that (back pressure?) and the area of the mesh is greater in order to allow a certain amount of debris to accumulate without starving the pump.

Original 1.0 EcoBoost takes 4.6 litres of oil...that's a litre more than the 1.6 TDCI.  Often wondered how it can possibly need all that in such a tiny engine! 😮  

Easy! Petrols run higher  engine speeds than Diesels so they need more cooling. Besides, the stuff lasts a lot longer than ever it did for lots of reasons

Regarding to Ford there are more differences:
 

Data from Microcat/Ecat for a 2016 Fiesta with 1.0 ECOboost engine:

Bottom end Fiesta 1.0 ECOboost:

100 HP / 125 HP 
Part Number: CM5G-6011-BA

140 HP 1.0
Part Number: E1BG-6011-BA

Head gasket Fiesta 1.0 ECOboost:

100 HP / 125 HP
Part Number: DM5G 6051-AA

140 HP
Part Number: CM5G 6051-LA

 

Focus MK3.5 part numbers for reference:

Bottom end Focus 1.0 ECOboost:

125 HP / 140 HP 
Part Number: E1BG-6011-BA
 

Head gasket Focus 1.0 ECOboost:

100 HP / 125 HP / 140 HP 
Part Number: DM5G-6051-AA

 

This basically means that the 140 HP Fiesta MK7.5 version has the exact same bottom end as a 125 HP / 140 HP Focus MK3.5 version.

The head gasket however is different. The (thicker) head gasket that reduces the compression ratio from 10:1 to 9.9:1 is quite specific for the 140 HP Fiesta MK7.5 version and is not used on any other version of the 1.0 ECOboost.

 

So thicker gasket is only for fiesta 140hp?

Question.

Focus 125hp mk3 and focus 140hp mk3 has the same turbocharger?

Same dimensions?

Same dimensions for turbine wheel and compressor wheel?

Found out (most probably) that turbcharger CM5G 6K682-HE especially for models built after 2017 is the same for 125hp and 140hp version.

 

Thanks to JW1982.
