Turbo coolant, where is the outlet?

I recently replaced the leaking inlet tube and connector. That is all good with no leaks. Looking with a mirror I am seeing some seepage on the back right of the turbo (left if you are facing truck). Is there another connector on the back side or could the seal be worn? Ive searched and all I have seen was in reference to the inlet tube leaking.


Is there a diagram showing the travel of coolant?
Trying to decide if I should knock it out or ride it out until I swap turbos

Thanks in advance

From the coffee table book (there are some diagrams also):

The coolant enters the turbocharger
from a passageway in the engine
block. The coolant exits by a tube
mounted on the left side of the
turbocharger and goes into the
water crossover at the front of the
engine.

Thanks.
So it looks like I have the flow path backwards. From others input I suspect it is leaking at the pedestal mount

edit:
I found your source. I actually had it bookmarked...Im guessing its leaking where the turbo connects to the pedestal..
