IPR could also do it possibly, and HPOP gaskets could I would imagine.

99.9% chance it's the turbo pedistal O-rings. Mine has been leaking for years because I'm too lazy to dismantle the entire turbo system just to replace O-rings

I know my 6.0 had a bad turbo seal that leaked all over the valley and made for the infamous oil leak down the tranny. Got a new turbo under warranty along with a couple of new injectors
