Hello everyone, this is really my first time owning a forced induction car so some things are new to me. Had a stinger but wrecked it... anyway. My exhaust has been emitting smoke, not thick white smoke like a coolant and oil mix, but like light grey smoke with a burnt smell. I checked for indications of a coolant leak and none were found. I finally decided to get under the car and saw a good amount of oil leaking from my passenger side turbo. Is there any way to fix this? Obviously take it to a shop but any solutions such as AT-205 to stop leaks and etc? Video of the leak down below. Any advice or input to point me in the right direction would be appreciated.

 
Is it leaking from an oil pipe/line?

If you are lucky - it's just an easily replaceable banjo bolt/gasket.

Not sure, I would have to go back and check. Only reason why I thought it may have been the seal is because I saw oil dripping from the turbo heat shield. The car still makes boost and performance is great until I start spraying wmi then it throws the CEL mainly O2 sensor codes p0140/60 and p2297/98. Another important note is when Im spraying wmi the car makes smoke on deceleration, but whenever I do a pull with the wmi off there's no smoke at all which is very odd to me. Also what part number would be the banjo bolt/gasket?
 
Update, more than likely blown seal, puddle of oil sitting in both turbos and reached the diverter valve.
