I recently cranked the engine with the exhaust manifold off, and the #6 exhaust port sweped oil out of it.

The turbo bearings/seals recently went bad, and blew oil into the intake, where it pooled up a little.

Now, I'm not sure if it's just residual blowing through the intake, or it's seals that blew internally, and if it were something internally, what would have blown to cause oil to spew out the exhaust port? I'm removing the head right now anyways to get it decked and o-ringed, so I'll take a look, but I'm not sure what to look for. Any ideas? Thanks,

#6 cyl is the lowest, considering the angle of the engine. I would think oil in the intake would settle toward the rear. When you have the head off, look for scored cylinder. Also have the injector checked,could be fuel out port,injector not atomizing fuel into fine spray.
