Sounds like you've popped a boost hose or have a boost leak. You get a little oil in the inlet manifold and boost pipes. Totally normal!

Is it a HDi 110 or 90?

HDi 110 has an intercooler (Radiator between the turbo and engine) the HDi90 does not. The turbo is plumbed straight into the engine.

Boost hoses are the hoses that carry pressure between the turbo and engine.
