Turbo drain, valve covers

possible rear main but I'd start by checking that the oil doesn't have a fuel smell to it. The FFM is notorious for leaking in the valley and picking up sludge to look like oil. also valve cover

Do I need to remove turbo to take valve cover off?
Also check the OPS, oil pressure switch/sender, isn't leaking. There is a plug for the cam on the rear of engine that also leaks now and then, rare.
Yes turbo is really in the way and it's quicker to remove it and *Cough upgrade it* at the same time.
Oil is cheap vs. fixing leaks so think about it hard before tearing into a 20 year old pickup for a minor leak.
