its normal to have some oil in the air breather going into the turbo, both valve covers have to come and glow plugs out to run a compression test , have to have theright adaptor to fit where the glow plugs go, doubt its low compression, have you checked codes , is maintenance up, may want to run a fuel pressure test

yes maintenance is good i change oil every 3500 miles i use rotella 15 40 and donaldson oil filter, i change my fuel filter every 7000 mi with baldwin filter air filter as needed, my fuel pressure gauge shows 60 psi at idle it is under the hood so i dont know what it is running down the road
