    The drain back hose to from the turbo could be leaking. It shouldn't be too hard to see if it is leaking from where the oil comes into the turbo. It could also be leaking from one of the studs in the head since some of them go into oil galleys.

    Finally, my how times have changed. I remember when guys were converting their trucks to low riders in there and running a self serve detail shop on the weekends.
