Default broken turbo? you decide!

i have some crazy virus and feel like crap, so bear with me, im not in my right mind.

ok, here goes.

took all my turbo goodies off to discover a small oil leak coming out from two of the ...downpipe bolts?
as i removed the downpipe, i also noticed there was a good bit of oil in the exhaust housing, and the wheel was a little moist. but there is no oil coming out of the compressor side, and none in my charge piping.

i dont think i was burning oil, but for the past few months my oil feed line has been leaking, as was my oilpan gasket, so its hard to know where the loss of oil was coming from. but the oil consumption was not too bad, i was just a quart low every month or so
