check all your pipes

if a boost pipe has come off somewhere then the car wont run

but sounds like you have a air leak somewhere

oil in boost pipes is generally down to breather system as it recirculates backinto metering unti and turo sucks it up

hence you have oil in pipes and coming out of dumpvalve

get a breather system sorted and block the breather hole up on metering unit, this will stop the oil recirculatin and go to atmosphere instead

to check vac pipes etc, get a can of brake cleaner while engine is running and spray on all hoses and joints, if the car picks up or lowers9carnt remember which) then you have found a leak

also do a compression check

once you sort thr breather out and block the metring unti then ill be surprised if theres oil in the boost pipes after

at least you found 1 problem and sorted it, now sort the cam belt out
