new player in town

hello folks, my names ric lopez, just joined , I have a rrc 200tdi factory fitted all original, just needs loads of welding to put back on road, ive got a problem though that I cant sort out, oil is leaking and spitting out of the turbo- downpipe, at the exhaust joint, even though ive replaced loads of bits it s still doing it, same as before all this, new turbo cartridge fitted, new valve seals, new cyclone breather, new piston rings, 1 new valve and guide, new head gasket, new oil pressure relief valve, new timing belt, its the only leak on the whole damm car, id do a compression test, but need kit, and I was thinking about taking out the vacum pump next, can some one help please.

hi thanks, havent got any pics, the leak streak became long and black after running upto temp, on drive, runs down exhaust elbow from down pipe clamp, then drips on to floor, if i rev the engine it even spits- sprays , on chassis.

I wish I could get my landy to spit oil onto me chassis instead of just over the drive

It sounds like the pressure feed to the turbo is leaking.... but it's really hard to comment without pictures !!
