Maybe an oil leak, burnt by the heat of the turbo.
rocker gaskets are comman to leak and are around that area (bit lower) crankshaft oil seal is another leaking point but thats at the front,but does drip onto exhaust manifold.Also possible spilt in oil return pipe from turbo.
Carn't see it being turbo on its way out,as that would cause smoke out of the exhaust
ahhhh, ive been told that i have a slight leak from my rocker gasket, could this be why i had a bit of smoke...oil driped onto the turbo or exhaust maybe
