Where does it say it leaked through the exhaust? He said the right side aka exhaust side was caked. I just did my HPOP fittings and believe me my whole underside was soaked in oil and that was the exhaust side.

 

There is oil sucking through the turbo and coming out through the eshaust as well as running off the back of the motor below turbo, no oil in the valley.
I am no mechanic and if I had the extra funds I would take it to the shop.
I am a former plumber by trade and there is one heck of a lot of plumbing going on back there with that turbo. lol

 

Well, if you lived closer, i'd say bring ur truck over along with a case of brewski, and we'd tackle the oil leak...

 

Timmyboy is a good guy, post your city in tx and maybe your find a good helping hand there to. They were having a get together there don't remember the date. Thats the time to get things done. Lot of guys to steer you straight. Clay can help on the phone with direction also, he has all the parts and his price is always right. Chet

 

Its not half as complicated as it looks, I had no experience working on a diesel and these guys got me threw everything.... turbo swap or rebuild no swet
