Sounds like crankcase pressure has gone through the roof and is forcing oil out.
Could be your piston rings mate, do a compression test.
Dont think the turbo oil seal leaking would force oil out of your breather system, it would just add oil to your air/fuel mixture and get burnt off making you smoke like mad from the exhaust.

if you need a turbo i have an excellent stg3 t3 turbo to sell as its way over spec'd for my otherwise fiesta turbo (cutting back as even on its lowest un bleed boost its over what the ecu will allow)

i have a std t3 to fit now or i may be breaking the car up
