I would say that the oil is leaking from the oil return (drain) from the front turbo as it seems to be running down from the rubber hose and I would suggest that the hose is not pushed far enough down the metal pipe that comes out of the block as the ribber hose usualy is pushed down hard up against the raised rib on the metal pipe.As for the smoke coming out the exhaust it could possibly be caused by engine blow by due to more boost being run through the engine with the new bigger turbos wich may not have been an issue with less boost and the standard turbos.I would be inclined to do a compression test on your engine because if it has a few klms on t the stress on the engine due to larger turbos and more boost could be the start of the end.I hope not hope this is a bit of help best of luck mate
