Will have to have a look at mine tomorrow to confirm, but I think the engine breather system is connected between the airfilter and the turbo. So if there was any oil passde through the breather system that could be found between the turbo and the TMIC. I recently replaced my up-pipe so took the turbo fff and found some oily deposits in the pipe so I've cleaned it and will see what happens in a couple of months. Will try to remember to check where the breather hose fits. If this is the case then fitting a oil catch tank shopuld help.
