Default Turbo oil leak - gasket or something more sinister?

Hey folks,

Thought you may be able to help with this general issue. I noticed a small oil leak a while back and traced it to the Turbo, I asked an engineer friend and he said probably a new gasket on the return pipe would do it.

However I'm aware these issues are rarely at the site of the turbo but could be a sign of some deeper issue?

Thanks!

jack up the car or use ramps, undo the under tray and clean were the leak is, then run the car and see if it is coming from there,
