Check the play on the turbo it might be a bad seal or the valve stem seals. To check the the valve stem seal remove the exhaust manifold it shouldn't have oil around the guides/valves. If its the valve seals you can change it with the head still on the car and no it won't harm anything. It will just be annoying and burn oil.

pull off your exhaust manifold. if theres oil in there, its coming from you engine. if not, its the turbo seals i blew a FP t27 and i though it was my engine... i had the same problem you are describing, but yea f its the engine, its gonna be your piston rings, or valve seals! hope this helps!
