its burning it somewhere, if it was the turbo blowing oil out your whole
back end would be covered with oil.

Ok, so I've sealed the baffle on the valve cover, swapped the air cleaner
housing from the '82 300D into the CD, and changed the oil cooler lines.
It's still burning oil and smoking but not leaking more than 2-3 small drops
on my parking spot. The turbo intake is dry and free of oil now.
I ran it the other day(2500-3000rpm/5 minutes) with the breather tube
(flat/upgraded version) in a plastic bottle and there was only 2 drops of oil
in the bottle when I was done. I also put my hand over the breather hole and
held it there for more than 20 seconds with out it dying.
Any other ideas where my oil might be going? TIA all.
