leaking oil.
ok so i just got my car to where i can trouble shoot. it is leaking out on the hotside. just filled it a few day's ago and got my injectors put back in then i go to start it and it is spewing oil out of the exhaust and found a small puddle under the hotside.
it is spewing white smoke that smells like gas when i start it and it wont maintain idle. any ideas anybody?
I will get pics and a video when i get home.

If it's spewing that much oil, either one of the oil lines around the turbo is bad and/or the oil seals in the turbo/engine are bad.
white smoke means coolant is getting into the combustion chamber. Start with the "champagne bubbles" test with the upper coolant cap removed to check for a coolant leak inside the engine. Then make sure all your oil lines are sealed properly and those aren't leaking.
If you can borrow a turbo from a friend that would let you eliminate the turbo as the cause. Because if it's not the turbo, its the motor.
