If the oil filter drain valve is not depressed, it does not close. So, much of the oil that is intended to be pumped to the engine goes back to the oil pan. Therefore it results in less lubrication flow, in addition to minimal filtering. The oil that does get pumped forward will get hotter than normal because the flow is reduced. You won't ever see it on the EOT gauge.
Basically it results in engine damage from a lack of lubrication. Sounds like it might be coming from the turbo or HPOP to me.

My assumption is that this combination of cap and filter didn't "just happen". Also, if the turbo was just reconditioned, that work probably did not include bearing or VGT solenoid replacement.

When you say 5", are you talking the down pipe off the turbo?
If so I would say stay away from that idea. You will likely run into issues with clearance and rattles, but the bigger factor is it will actually do more harm than good since you won't be making the back pressure it was designed for at 3"
Some guys will run a 4" down pipe. The kids truck has a 4", but only because it came with it.

You might find you will have slightly more boost when you get rid of that leak.
