Hello,
Not that usually leaks externally was the oil return tube cleaned out when the turbo was replaced. A blockage in the return tube usually leads to smoke, often when too much silicone is used to seal that paper seal. Was the banjo bolt on the turbo feed line clean and the correct one. There are some banjo bolts with smaller holes and that might lead to the oil wanting to go somewhere. Good Luck, Bernie
