Turbo oil leak?

lazyninja87 · 03-15-2015, 05:45 PM

I did my catch can install recently and noticed this oil leak but can't really tell where its coming from. I think its from the black fabric hose directly below my engine cover? My big turbo seems to be draped in it as well. Does anyone have thoughts?

It's from the oil feed hose #2, that goes from the distribution block to the small turbo. Replacement is very easy. Make sure you get new copper crush washers and hope your leak is not from the oil feed hose #1 that goes from the block to the distribution block.

I've got BNIB #2 feed line for sale if you want it.
