Your going to have to spray it down and get some pics , lets hope its not the Bed Plate, you said from the HPOP area and around 1 Qt , how much oil from the last oil change did you put in and how long ago? most run 13.5 Qts should be fine and it also eliminates the Bell housing Drip, whats the IPR and ICP values?

If your ICP is under the turbo its a good chance I thought your truck was a late build o4 if so the ICP will be on the Valve cover?

Don't forget to put some clean fresh oil on the O-ring to keep it from
sticking and geting a tare. Take a good look at the old O-ring for any
signs that it has been torn. If you find any replace it with a new one.
I know this part will be a pain but try to make sure that the port
that it goes into is clean also. If you missed a fragment last time
that could be the leak. Your dealing with very high pressures and
it just takes a tiny bit of crud to cause a problem.
Good luck and let us know.

Ok so as i sit here @ work perusing the internet on what could be wrong,i went to Advance auto web site..........that is where the last ICP sensor came from..........and I go and look up the part......... so i called them. Kid on phone looked up the part, dont have in stock but will get by 13:00........so I said fine i will be in to get it.....then a friend was looking for the same sensor and says that is the wrong part.......@ this point i am getting mad.................so I called them back and spoke with the same "kid" and he said yep two diffrent parts..........i can order it and have it tomorrow.......I said ok and then he says that will be 150.00 ........but isnt it under warranty? he said yeah but you bought the wrong sensor.........
.......like i walked in and picked it out off the shelf and walked out..........so after some discussions with the manager ......they will exchange the sensor out..........
