Generally it tends to be fuel instead of oil (it just ends up looking like oil). If it is oil, look at the hoses (both ends) coming of the High Pressure Oil Pump (HPOP) and going to the heads. Also look at the plugs for the other cylinders where HPOP hoses would go if they were used for that purpose. Also look at the EBPV (Exhaust Back Pressure Valve) actualor rod that goes to the butterfly valve just after the turbo (exhaust side). If its fuel, it can be lots of things, so post back if that the case. Cheers!
