Check the oil to see if it is over the full mark. If it is, you've got fuel in it and one or more of your injectors has crapped out on you.

Joe,

I have read where some of the injector problems are associated with o-rings being cut/damaged upon installation, rather than just the injector itself failing. Can you give some insite to this?

If you've got fuel in the oil, it is probably an internal problem with the injectors (an examination of the injectors will reveal wheather there is damage to the outside of the injector or the O-rings). If youe engine puked a lot of liquid out the turbo you risk having bent connecting rods. The only way to know for sure is to pull the engine. If I were you, I'd settle for nothing less than a new engine.
