Turbo leaks

I drive a 2004 Jeep Liberty KJ 2.5 CRD, recently i have been having oil leaks and I took it for an engine wash as well as undercarriage. From underneath I realized the oil is coming from the turbo .Is there any way I can fix this?

Are you positive it's from the turbo as opposed to:
1. leaking oil cooler spraying back on turbo
2. torn airbox to turbo hose dripping oil from front of turbo
3. leaky CCV hose to airbox to turbo hose dripping down.

Possible oil leaks associated with turbo
1. leaky turbo sleeve bearing - VERY BAD, pull airbox to turbo hose and check the "fan" you see for movement.
2. oil feed line leak - at block then tighten fitting vs at turbo may need new banjo washers
3. oil return line - at turbo may need new gasket vs at block forget about it as it always drips a bit from the push fit grommet

Where did you "attach" the photos of your oil leaks?

I'm having the same issues.

Both times when my 2006 #1 started leaving permanent oil stains everywhere, it was turbo seal which required replacement turbocharger.
Which i to from Turbochargerpros.com. I think about $650

Exactly which part of your turbo was leaking?
Was it dripping out out the exhaust?
