Re: Oil going somewhere - fast! 700 1987

Look underneath for wetness - transmission rearward. Rear main seal very likely source...neglected crankcase breather may have caused seal (regardless of condition) to pop out of place.

Other good possibility on turbo is the turbo oil return pipe where it enters the block just above the oil pan, O-ring goes bad and makes big sloppy mess.

You may need to wash things off and see what area gets wet first.
