Where is the turbo outlet?

I want to check to see if my turbos seals are leaking. Where do I find the turbo outlet hoses? Are those the two hoses on the top of the engine that lead into a larger T junction that are just clipped on?

You can pop off the intercooler hoses at the compressor housing to check for oil. Best to do on a hoist.

My info the best way to check if the turbo seals are leaking is to expose the intercoolers and check for the presence of oil. Also, to examine the compressor wheel of the turbo for any signs of oil. The exact steps to do this I can't help with. When the plugs are changed on my car the tech makes these checks as part of the plug job.
