Oil leak from top back of 03 6.0

I just noticed that I have a oil leak from the back top of my motor. last thing done on it was a turbo replacement. Is there anything that you guys have seen or been through that I could check for loose lines or something to save me a day or so at the dealer and my deductable payment? Looks like its coming from the drivers side.

Could be the icp sensor leaking oil at the plug in seems like a common thing on 03's. There's an updated harness with the turbo just being replaced you would think the dealer would of at least checked this fitting while they had the turbo off.

Re: Oil leak from top back of 03 6.0

I just had my EGR cooler and turbo replaced and a month later I had a large oil leak - 14 quarts gone in less than an hour of driving. Towed the truck up to the dealership and they told me that the oil filter housing was cracked. I asked them how that happened and they told me it was a manufacture's defect (truck has 80k miles on it). Oil and fuel filter housing was replaced and most likely other things too. They washed the engine and undercarriage for me but now I get a moderate smell of fuel when the truck is turned off. I wonder why now? I hope it doesn't mean another visit....
