Oil (?) spot on bottom of turbo......?
While changing my oil on Saturday, I noticed there is an oil spot (mark) on the bottom of my turbo. Kind of alarming, because there is NO other oil anywhere in the vicinity.
Just under 14,500 on the odometer.
Thoughts?

Is it possible that some oil splashed up while you were changing your filter or draining your oil? Does it look like a new spot or is there any road dust on it?

No, it would have been a high splash. It is an oblong stain, dead on the bottom of the turbo, looked like oil to me. I didn't reach up to wipe it, but I will to get a better look if it dries out tomorrow (it's miserable here)
Like I was saying, everything else around it appears clean.
