After removing the IC and looking under it and the turbo, I did find some oil but I'm not sure where it's coming from. Just like when I had this issue last year, I see evidence of oil on the CV boot below the turbo. That's what you see in the third pic.

Additionally the first two pics show some oil seeping out of or onto hoses below where the turbo hits the Y-Pipe. However the inside of the Y pipe, IC and turbo appear to be pretty darn clean. Same with the throttle body. I guess it seems like oil is coming out of the bottom/side of the turbo closest to the motor and getting on those hoses (first two pics) or coming from them? I don't know but it doesn't seem like a big deal...I hope.
