I have a small amount of oil coming out of the aluminum turbo housing that the air filter attaches to. Appears to be coming out at the gap in the large “snap ring”, This is happening at my Starboard engine, the port engine turbo is leaking a extremely small amount of oil. No drips on either side, just a small “spray” causing spots as the photos show on the Starboard engine turbo. Removing the air filter and looking inside it looks new and clean with no oil visible.
I asked my mechanic about it when he was out doing some other work and his response was: “clean it up and keep an eye on it, but until it drips I wouldn’t worry about it”
Is this normal for the 6BTA, or should I do anything about it other than clean it up and keep an eye on it?
Thanks in advance for your response.
