Default Turbo Diagram V50 T5 AWD

Guys, would anyone have a turbo diagram, to share for a V50 T5 AWD?

I have a small leak that a garage is saying comes from the turbo, and I want to get this fixed right away. Any danger from driving the car in this condition? Again is not a real leak is more of a seepage. Two to three drops of oil after driving 150 km or so.

I do not know if this is pure coincidence or not, but this started right after I changed the oil from a 5W30 to a 10W30, both synthetic.

Your advice and thoughts into this turbo issue will be appreciated.

10W30 should have nothing to do with it. It is even in the owners manual. I run 5W30 in winter and 10W30 in summer, always synthetic.

From what I have heard, there is a seal that is fairly common to go bad and leak.

Thanks Stan! Would you know were this seal is located? What is involved in changing this seal? Forgot to mention that the car is a 2005 model.
