Is that the wastegate flange?
Oh man, if it is that is what I am dealing with right now...
First I (apparently or possibly) misdiagnosed a blown turbo seal. Turns out that this is very unlikely based on input from the not so local turbo shop.
I am now in the process of chasing my blowby as it appears to me that the oil is passing through tthe turbo/wastgate pressure hose and then leaking out the drain hole on the bottom of the wastegate.
Can you clarify this picture/leak location for me?
I have been putting a lot of grey matter to this issue and have some theories to bounce offf someone.
Upon closer inspection of your photo it looks like I see the pic clearer. I used a little shot of high temp rtv on my drain and it seemed to seal it weith no ill effects.
