The smoke reminds me of valve stem seals because the plugs are clean, Back in the 90s when valve stem seals was a common thing I had a beamer 323i 5 speed and I used to thrash it every where I went, It never blew any smoke until you went round a corner, when you put the boot into it it let out a big puff of smoke, I think the difference with a turbo car is there's no vacuum in the manifold but you have pressure there, but oil can still come out the exhaust valve stems and get burnt by the flame, that pressure as you say could blow up the drain pipe for the turbo and push out past the turbo shaft. PS the PCV on a NA engine goes into the inlet manifold, adding air pressure to that manifold is obviously a possible source of a change in crank case pressure. they are the only 2 places I can think of that could alloy turbo air pressure into the C Case.

I had a vl turbo as a young fella long time ago this might be or maybe not the problem a mechanic Iooked at my car and said it was some sort of valve that was letting oil back up then drip into manifold causing smoke out the exhaust I can’t exactly remember the part I had to get from Holden but he fixed it 2 other mechanics told me my turbo and engine was done I cauldnt work it out but cause it still had power anyway story might help 👍🏼

Had quite a few of the HK HT HG's in my day and all the external trim on this score is definitely HT except someone has put in HG taillights. Good score I luv them and prem as well. Who knows might end up being a 308 with M21 lol

At 29:41 it looks like there is a breather off your rocker cover going to your inlet manifold…. So… when the turbo starts boosting and puts positive pressure in the inlet manifold the breather hose will get positive pressure and pressurise your crankcase via the breather hose. Have a look at that gents.

No it’s hooked to the PCV so when it builds boost the PCV will close and stop it.

@@carsnthingsrestos31 I was hoping you were going to say there was an operational PCV there, but I couldn’t see it or if one was fitted or not. I wasn’t doubting that you guys would not have checked it, just trying to offer some ideas to help out and get the VL on the road and not blowing smoke.
