That looks like the vent breather to intake pipe hose. If that came off the intake pipe you should have a large leak between the mas air meter and the turbo. This would make it hard to start and run poorly once started. Look for a large hose fitting on the intake pipe between the mas and the turbo. Put it back into place. Now find out where that oil went.

That is just a breather line. Stock it just routes back into the intake pipe, but it looks like there is some ghetto intake on there now. A little bit of oil will come out of there mixed in with air. A breather filter or catch can would be a better way to do that line, but it shouldn't have caused the motor to fail.

Do you see any large splashes of oil anywhere under the car? There is nothing in the pics as fasr as oil, loose lines etc.

We either need some pics of the oil cooler assembly or just the bottom pan and all. Did the car leave a puddle of oil when it was towed? Any evidence at all?

There is a metal intake pipe on there and the line is dumped to the ground. That line means nothing. The intake pipe doen't have a spot for it.

Car is a 92 so no oil cooler.

well in the 2nd pic I posted, you can see some oil in front if the turbo,
and where i pulled over there was a few drops of very dark oil, not very many though
tomorrow i will jack the car up and take pics of the oil filter and get some pics of the underside of the car
thanks for all the replies

BTW, I remember the turbo having caked on dirt when John got the car. ICEMAN scraped off the front side of it to look cleaner.

Why are you missing the FPR solenoid,EGR solenoid,and Purge control solenoid in the first PIC, and the fuse box? looking at the PIC it would be the upper right side. The hose in PIC two is the vent hose, for the camcover and should have a filter, it was pluged in to the stock air intake hose.

If all that is missing it is because John must have taken it out, I have not had time to mess with it.
