I would check the oil feed line coming from the block to your fuel pump. It should be a stainless line with a brass fitting that will sometimes back out.
Rideandrepair Thanks this. -
The only thing I would be concerned with is if the oil is blowing out of turbo, through ata into intake. Pull the hose from turbo, check for oil. Otherwise whatever it is, it’s probably a minor, hose connection, as mentioned, or a sensor leaking from somewhere, maybe valve cover on the very front side, or more likely at the corner, its most likely coming from a forward source, blowing back along the manifold.

I hope it's not turbo I just did a Borg Warner swap egr upgrade on the other side of turbo looks like condensation

More than likely you’ve got more than 1 leak, Front cover or compressor oil supply hose/ fitting upfront, and sensors up above starter or rear structure ( bell housing to block) , on rear, Unless last turbo blew, or was leaking, pushing oil, into air to air cooler, and ata wasn’t boiled out ( cleaned) and oil is getting pushed through it now by new turbo. Excessive idle, especially low idling, will cause everything to seep oil. Low idling will also destroy turbo bearing, seal will leak oil into ata.

Do you let the truck idle for a good 5 minutes with the engine fan going before you shut it off? All that heat and dry spin from shutting it off right away will kill a turbo pretty quick.
Tx Countryboy and Rideandrepair Thank this. -
Ok so the first one was a normal turbo stock vpod it started leaking oil towards the intake then finally gave up in a hill I replaced the charge air put new one then upgraded to 12.7 borgwarner tune its brand new about 2 months old and now I hear whistle so notice oil on the outside intake took everything apart and found all the oil both sides of the turbo and intake side
