Other than that your block needs checked, decked etc.
oil coolers don't work like that, the water is contained in a jacket.
i've heard of one guy piping up the coolant pipes to the block breather before
took him a bit to realise why he had a problem.
i'd suggest what has already been suggested and check the block face as these can warp, uncommon, but possible.

edit to ask on the condition of the turbo, are the water cooling pipes connected (if it uses water cooling that is)?
if so, then block the pipes from cooling system and try running without them, they're not essential anyhow.
since it's just going into the sump,it sounds like the turbo core may have fractured letting water directly into the oil way in turbo and running into sump.
just a thought.
