I finally scored a OFFY 5416 intake, from a member here on the board, thanks Steve.
I finally got the chance to dig in today. The turbo looks in great shape, as well as the up and down pipes.
When I took off the intake/exhaust I was revealed an issue. I had noticed oil/gas stains coming down from that area and running down the block. I kept on trying to clean it up but could never see the source.
It looks as though the intake was not tight against the block and fuel was leaking from the intake and down the block. Probably caused from running rich and boost pressure.
I am taking my Offy and exhaust manifold in to get resurfaced, hopefully that will correct the issue.

and also an artsy pic of my turbo. Praise Garrett!
