850 Turbo - '95 - Turbo Oil Leak? 850 1995

Hi All - I have an oil leak, and a mechanic recently told me that it was coming from the Turbo. He also said that the turbo unit is a closed system - meaning that I can't put additional oil in... and that the turbo would die for sure within a couple of months.

Is this true? Is there anything I can do about the leak? If the turbo dies while I am on a road trip - will I still be able to drive?

Any help is appreciated!

Adam
