Default oil pan leaking

I have boosted greddy turbo. My bold oil pan bolts and drain plug is soaked in oil. It would leak oil drops when im driving and when i turn off engine. I see half dollar size oil drop on concrete. This is pissing me off. The oil is going all over my axle linkage and down the bottom of my car when i drive far. I went to a shop and replace the oil pan gasket but it still leaks. I think this shop is not using honda acura oem parts. Could this be causing the leak? Please help. Recently got timing belt/water pump/cam seals replaced but its not coming from up top. Its coming from oil pain where gasket is. I can see the oil around it. Should i bring a acura mechanic i know who owns business and get it replaced again with acura oem gasket??? I dont trust this *** guy no more to work on my car and he lives quite a bit. Also the guy replaced the oil pan gasket, the color is blue. Is blue the stock acura oem gasket color. Im pissed and bringing my gsr to a acura certified mechanic and getting this fix with oem parts.

im not sure exactly what youre asking...

If the mechanic overtightened the gasket, this could cause it to leak.
i would take it ot the acura dealership and have them install a new one for sure.

Is the gasket suppose to be a blue color. The mechanic used a blue gasket when he replace the oil gasket last week. Im gonna have a acura mechanic fix it and make sure its the problem
