J line leak or something else?

Hello,

I’m looking to replace the j line because it looks like it’s leaking but I can’t be sure as it looks like the oil is underneath it? Hoping it’s not the other turbo oil line that’s a pain to replace. Would appreciate any help cheers

Looks like quite a bit needs attention after looking at that pic.

Yeah I’ll be replacing the vacumm lines aswell. Could I just replace the j hose and not the bottom one for now or would that have no benefit?

You can just replace the top line if that's the one leaking.

I can't stand looking at a bolt like that without wrench marks on it.

i would clean the area of the distribution block and see if the supply line is leaking (that's the pain in the butt one). It sure looks like this one has messed up the area to me. Not how its own screw is very oil and also the further to left screw head and end of low press turbo's oil feedline is yucked up too.

Clean with break cleaner, wipe it off, and see what comes back and where. My bet is the middle screw in your picture. Good luck!
