oil leak

I have a 92 f-350 with a 7.3 and a aftermarket banks turbo.She seems to leak more when I shut the engine off than when running, from what I can tell it is on the passenger side somewhere above the oil pan, it doesn't seem to be a rear main or the turbo. I am guessing valve covers or is there something else I am missing. Any suggestions would be great.

Thanks Craig

The Turbo oil drain runs down into the valley pan with a grommet to do the sealing.

Check the grommet

Since this is an aftermarket Turbo..... if the turbo oil drain goes into the valley pan where the CDR was........ there was supposed to be a few extra holes punched into the inner cover of the valley pan. "Seen through the CDR/VP return hole"
