Default Trying to get rid of two oil leaks under the car

I just a very overdue PCV service and the car is definitely running much better. Now my next step is to stop leaking oil. I had the chassis washed and I changed to synthetic 5W40 oil. Then after three days I put the car on an elevator and took some pictures.

What should I do? Change the gaskets (or o-rings?) on both sides of the turbo return line? That was suggested on another board.

Thanks guys
Axel

Thats what it looks like the o-ring in the block is leaking.
I would replace the o-ring and gasket.
