check the exhaust elbow off the turbo for oil and the manifold where it bolts to head for oil also.
check the exhaust ports too for oil, you will have soot, but if you wipe your finger over it, if it's oil it'll stay wet, if condensation/overfuelling then it'll evapourate and leave a dry soot.
it could be the rings in an oval bore sadly, but you won't know till you've satisfied yourself with the turbo.
hope that help.


that will be 90% of your oil pressure spraying back into the sump then.
