Hey, if you have very high blow-by into the crankcase via the pcv system, or like through a blown piston then you will force oil out of the turbo labyrinth seals in the same way you would if you didn't have a restrictor in the oil feed.

You had better run a compression test fairly quick so you don't go chasing problems.

I'm hoping it is just a bad seal but I am suprised it is blowing out of both the turbine and compressor side.
