sounds like turbo seals.. if the turbos got some age on it, its probably just normal wear.. wipe it all clean and check again in a week if its just a small amount of oil.. you should be ok for a while.. while ur at it check the turbo for shaft play

sounds like either the turbo oil seals^^ or the vaccuum lines... you may need an oil catch can, whenever you arent boosting there's a vaccuum that pulls oil from the valve cover into your intake
