CT12A Oil Leak (Rear).. Need advice

[Hybrid]

When we put the engine in initially and started it up there was a big oil leak around the rear turbo, the rear oil inlet.

Took the turbo's off (again), replaced the oil inlet line gaskets with brand new ones... put turbos back on , but the leak is still there.. this time its juts a slight trickle ... anyone know wtf could be causing this?

- New gaskets
- both surfaces seem flat and without grit
- Leak is very slight, but increases as the car oil gets to working temp
- It's only one side of the the rear line (inlet side), and only the rear turbo.
- Bolts are as physically tight as they will go
- Front turbo oil line does not leak with old and new gasket.

Anyway here are some pictures looking from under the car. Seems like it could be a third time to take the trubos off wtf... though I don't see even what that will solve. I really don't see how it is leaking from what appears to be through the tread....

i had that on my CT26, four (4!!!!) times i had to take it off!

i found the problem to be that, no matter how new, or good the gasket that you use is, you NEED (even the slightest amount...) sealant on it!

i think i used locktite black from memory...?
