Guess what .......................Engine out again
the colour and carbon build up on all of the pistons would say are right .. the bad piston/cylinder doesn't have scores on it but its transferred alloy from the piston the ring looks intact but will know more when i strip lower block tomorrow started at 6pm finished 9:30 taking it from Full engine to bare short block

Spoke to Turbo place and he explained how the oil can end up in the boost lines/exhaust with engine fail ... he said if a piston had a Hole in it and turbo was on + boost this would pressurize the crank case and push the oil back in to the turbo from the drain hole so oil is being forced from both ends of the tub so the only place for it to go is though the shaft oil seal and in to the pipes .. but hes all so said he would pick up and test and return the tubs for free so as you can see cylinder 6 has melted and all so looks to be a small gasket leak on from oil well to 5

Guess what .......................Engine out again
last time i checked pipes was all clean and that was only weeks ago ... oil coming out of passanger side exhaust ... no oil in drivers side ... clean but there was oil in both sides of the intercooler not loads but enuff to leave a nice trail when it was taken off so i would guess about 100ml in total i'm just ready to take engine out .. started at half 2 ... doing good for time
