Update!

OK, Yes, it's the block heater that is on the way of the turbo
it's right behind the Turbo Inlet !
I finally decided to take my turbo out, and take that engine warmer out, i asked everywhere, they said there won't be any different sizes. Well then i decided to not use the block heater ! BUT i can't find any nuts or bolts or screws to block that ****ing big hole ! it's i think 28 mm large !
Then... what can i do??? well... USE DREMEL !
i used to dremel to cut a little bit out of that metal!
it's like a metal that looks like a small but big dick !
then there is a rubber plug at the end which touches the turbo ! I put some electrical tape around it !
In conclusion i cut part of that shit out, now... IT IS NOT LEAKING !
Although it is still in touch with the turbo ! I droved it for a while, don't see any leaks! but i smelt something burning, i checked everything out, nothing is wrong, it's probably those electrical tape or the rubber is burning! but after a while, it's all good, not too much burnt smell !
I think it's all good now ! hopefully it will forever ~
there is another leak that i saw, it's on gasket where it connects the downpipe and the CAT, that metal gasket isn't in a good shape ! i probably need to buy a new one !
BUT those leak doesn't leak air out ! it leaks out some kind of LIQUID ! it looks like water, or it looks like engine oil !
me and my friend tasted it, doesn't taste like oil nor water !
is it possible that OIL is coming out?? After a 20 mins drive, i don see anything leaking out from there...
well i hope it will be all good after tonight! Thanks for all the help guys !

Chris
