Low coolant! Oil in Turbo Inlet!

I've just about had it with this car. So started taking apart the 550i for the infamous oil/coolant leaks. I had already replaced the shitty oem hoses for coolant with silicone hoses. However, I seem to have an oil leak. Are my turbo oil seals bad or does that much oil come out of the valve cover vent into the intake? There was a pool of oil on the turbo inlet when I pulled off the intake piping... Are my turbo oil seals bad?

Do you have a picture of the pool of oil in the turbo. Or is that what your trying to show in the top picture? If so there's nothing wrong with the turbo in the top picture.
