Blowing Blue smoke

I have a 2006 ford f350 6.0, with 300,00kms on it. It recently started blowing blue smoke and running rough after idling for a period of time( usually after 20min warm up, its quite cold here). I have a Turbo Underboost code that shows up as well. I could really use some advice with where to go with this problem. It does clear up within 5 mins down the road, and does not come back unless it sits and idles for a while again.

How has your oil level been? Do you have oil residue in the tailpipe? The oil seals in the turbo are probably leaking.

I will check the tail pipe, my oil level has stayed pretty consistant. But Ive had a feeling that I was gonna have to rebuild the turbo soon. So I will check the tail pipe and get back to you.
