I've got that too. My passenger side valve cover gasket is leaking and it
seeps onto the top of the turbo where it burns once you start driving. Take
a flashlight and look at the back of the valve cover. Seems many others
have had leaks too. Unfoturnately mine is out of warranty so I'll be
replacing mine myself when I do my downpipe installation next week.
