Take the car out for a run and then open the hood and look at the top of the turbo. There is a small L-shaped coolant bypass hose at the front of the head just above the turbo that tends to get pin holes and piss on the turbo once the system is pressurized. I've had it happen three times over the years. Usually after I was messing around in the area. Hopefully that's all it is.
You can also run a block test on your coolant to see if there is any carbon in it. That will tell you if your head gasket is leaking. I think Harbour Freight has an inexpensive block tester, or likely any repair shop will have one.
