thats your oil return line from the turbo. pull it off and clean it up 100% and use a high temp RTV or go to the dealer and get a new gasket. the second being a better choice

Yep, there's a rubber covered metal gasket that goes there.

Make sure no grit or dirt gets trapped between the faces, or else it will leak like crazy.
