Leaking Turbo on 1984 300D turbodiesel

My 300d turbodiesel seems to be leaking oil from right behind the line in front of the turbo. I am looking for suggestions on what to do. Do I just replace the line, or should I do more? Has anyone here ever replaced the line or lines connected to the turbo? If so was it a strenuous job? Info on the matter would be greatly appreciated?

about the leak

It seems I have a different turbo than your car. I might have to take a picture of it and download it onto here. Picture the front view of the turbo pointing towards the radiator of the car and a return line hose type of hose that goes toward the back of the car. The leak is where that hose connects to the turbo on the right. If that helps at all before I get some pictures of it.

There were two different turbos on these cars, so I'll wait for pics.
The most common is on mine, that black hose (first pic) is the waste gate line.
