LOOKS like your problem lies /w your turbo seals.. just look at the CHRA and turbine housing.. I see oil seeping out..

I also see oil at the top end of the AN fitting where it meets the 45. Check and see if thats tight and sealed. If the tapers don't snug up, it'll leak in the joint because the shoulders aren't tight. Check the seals and see if its just dripping down.
