Frank,
Hello, again.
Sounds like your turbocharger may only require an oil seal and a 360 degree oil seal replacement is fairly simple for the T25 once the unit is removed from the vehicle. The 360 degree seal has no gap as you would find on the OEM piston ring style seal and this eliminates oil bypassing from occuring and will insure against future bypassing common to the standard piston ring style seals.
You may also check that the engine is not creating positive crankcase pressures which could bring similar turbocharger bypassing issues. This can be done with a pressure meter over the dipstick portal but you could also check for any problems with the valve cover breather hoses, one way turbo check valve, etc. and replace if required.
Best of luck!
