Good catch. Expansion and contraction due to the wide range temperature changes could deform the sealing surface.

And the $6 oil return line seals.

When did you last replace the PCV system? If that is blocked it will eventually poor oil down the back of the block onto the turbo.

I would clean it all off and then see if you can find a source of the leak. It may not be the turbo as suggested.
