I would bet its not the turbo but the turbo pedistal...


The green arrow, thats where 90% of your leaks come from...

I have dealt with him before, but I dont see where he offers just a OBS pedistal? Myself, I would just gut it and remove the valve... but I saw that on Dieselsites site the other day...

The turbo is a Garrett TP-38. Once you get the turbo off of the engine a rebuild is a cake walk. But getting the turbo off the engine is a bit of a pain in the a$$.
