I'd check the oil cooler. Orings go bad over time and leak.
I recently had mine rebuilt.

I'd consider a non-ebpv turbo pedestal, possibly replacing the fuel lines as it's only a matter of time before the hold downs rub a hold in them. Pretty common to see and the main reason I designed this kit.

Up pipes if they are leaking.

i had already replaced the "easy to get at" hard fuel lines after one got a rubbed hole in it.

i don't think i have the ebpv anymore,, i think the banks brake took it's place. the banks brake is a total piece of ****. doesn't work,, has never really worked. bought it new from banks in 2011. worst money i ever spent. had it professionally installed by decent ford mechanic. banks is so weird, sometimes you get someone helpful,, other times you get treated like ****. anyway,, i guess i have deleted the ebpv with a piece of decoration. i have a friend with exact same truck, he bought it with the banks brake. his works fine and good. i have literally and forensically gone over every inch of every wire and thing on his install to compare to mine and they are identical.
