Default Oil leak

Focus st225 mk2 300bhp

Hi I have oil dripping down the bumperer next to drivers head light, there is oil on underside of the boneyjust above headlight, oil seems to be coming out the intercooler pipe joint next the the head light, the turbo only boosts to just before the red on the guage, it used to boost to end of red. Is this the turbo seals. I don't have oil at the dump valve and the MAF is dry, no smoke out the back either.

thats the cold side near drivers headlight and high chance its coming from your oil filter housing etc as its just to side of the drivers headlight, I would triple check all breather hoses and inspect housing inc diaphram
