I had a similar setup on the '85. my air/oil separator was 'different'. Do you have any media in your catchcan?

blowby on diesels is higher than gas engines (where this method is typically employed).

When the engine gets moving, it might be moving quite a volume of gases through that can. then it hits the colder air in your intake snout and falls out of suspension as its slapped against that wall.

trick is to get that oil to hit something before that.

I would not condemn, your turbo just yet.


***edit

I misread where you were finding oil, sorry. My explanation is wrong here.
