As in Expensive I should think.

Might be less expensive to get one of the custom made stainless jobbies from your local "Boy Racer" emporium.

[QUOTE=cheshired5;2546186]My money would be on the turbo seal leaking allowing oil into the air intake.
Large quantities of oil in the engine can be catastrophic as the engine can end up combusting the oil uncontrollably and effectively blow itself up.

Good answer , but you got the wrong side of the turbo . smoke & dripping oil is always a sign the bearing/seal on the exhaust side has failed . IF it was on the compressor side it would be grey / black smoke & the engine as you rightly note would enjoy a free diet of engine oil it could burn as fuel , leading to a runaway engine .

Bottom line the turbo requires replacing & maybe the exhaust due to oil contamination , as it will smoke for a long long time after repair

I would look for a second hand exhaust from a breaker - you will need to collect as they are not postable, but my 2003 still has the original exhaust with no repairs so there should be some available in OK condition.
