There is no wastegate on your 96. OBS trucks are non gated.

288k. It's oil off of the turbo boots. I read about some mod that stops that. Can't member which one right now. Crank case vent mod I think. I'm gonna pull em off and clean em up and do that mod. This truck is most likely not going anywhere anytime soon so I got time all it will take is money(that I don't have haha). I'm hopefully gonna get all the valve covers turbo y pipe and boots cleaned up pretty soon. Gotta pull em off and do glow plugs before it gets cold out.

If I can afford to I will. I think if I clean them up with some brake cleaner then rub them down with alcohol to get any moisture off I think they will seal fine. If not guess I'll try and get some used ones or new

Most the time when they get old they start to crack, if you pay close attention when you have them off look for cracks and if there are then they need replaced
