Gary from Portsmouth had fuel spray over onto the turbo somehow and the smoke came out of that vent... as seen at Ford Fair. Check those fuel seals mate - just in case, I know they are on the other side but the pressures are high so it might squirt over like his did. Cant think of much else on the turbo side as said???

Probably just a bit of oil dripping onto a hot component, ie. turbo or manifold. The very sharp bend, a few drops of oil from somewhere, no major surprise, I've noticed the same myself once or twice.

do you have a dump valve ?
back when i had my first cossie i was giving it some right foot action then when i backed off and the dumpvalve went off it misted oil everywhere. Looked like a fine smoke to start with, then realised the oil that cam out of the valve hit the turbo and burnt, hence the smoke
this was obviously without a cold side conversion !
