Now as far as the oil getting into the one box..I hate to be the bearer of bad news but one oil penetrated the filters they are toast. They usually crack once the oil hits them due to thermal shock. So those will likely need to be replaced and are usually worthless for core charges.

Ok thanks. I have reconcidered replacing the turbo do the fact that the filters will most likely need replacing. They took the box off and gallons of oil are dripping out. This whole thing is becoming almost as expensive as an inframe. I'm considering deleting the whole thing but I'm in California...

Oh gross!
Sorry, I'm of no help, but seeing that oil coming out of the DPF like that is just painful.
Sorry.
