My turbo was loose and the gasket got eaten by the turbo.

I took my hotpipe off and found BLACK oil, as if the turbo was pushing it towards the intercooler.

What does this mean?

When i was taking the exhaust manifold off 3 studs came out of the engine block along with the ( the nut was rusted to the stud and the stud came out).

What should i do?? :[

And the final question, the turbo - elbow part (where 5 bolt/nuts go), well one of the studs cracked! What should i do to take it out?

:[ So many problems come up just because a gasket got eaten

on stock sr's, they run the crankcase blowby into the intake. that will cause a little oil to go through the turbo and into the IC hotpipe. not realy a problem. as for the stud, get a ammer and some wd40 and get busy.
