Right under the turbo could be the turbo drain tube or the seal went on the HPOP cover.

I had an 01 7.3 that did the same thing to me. I took it to a mech and he told me a bolt worked loose on the turbo. Only cost like 60 bucks to get it fixed. Don't know if its the same situation but sounds awful similar.

Remove the Y-pipe heat shield and look at the ICP from below.

Assuming we are working on a 2003 engine, the two small bolts that secure the shield to the HPOP cover are 10mm heads, and the one bolt securing it to the driver side cylinder head is 13mm.

look at pic in Post #8

on an 03 ICP and IPR Sit next to each other

the ICP is closest to firewall

Either one could leak ALOT and FAST REALLY FAST

so your saying it leaks out the IPR???

Can you see it leak when someone cranks the engine or runing???

An oil leak, leaking out under pressure the way you describe should be very easy to pinpoint. Have you looked further up top the engine? Oil pressure switch, turbo oil feed supply line, turbo oil drain tube, oil filter housing (cracked?), oil cooler filter adapter and oil cooler top cover/gasket are a few other sources that come to mind. Do you have a way of posting pics of where it's coming from by any chance?
