Smoke coming from DP/Manifold

Just started my car, and blue smoke was pouring out for a while. It typically does this when i first start it cause Ive got a MP and ECU. But today went on for a bit. I popped my hood and found smoke coming from the side of the DP. Could this be a blown turbo seal? Is it so close to the exhaust manifold that i think its coming from the DP?

Oil is sneaking through the seems of the manifold somewhere and burning externally.. causing the smoke. Mine did the same. Hope your results aren't what mine may turn out being!
