New Turbo fitted.
Smoke has now gone. (':lol:')(':lol:').
Fault was diagnosed correctly from start, thanks for the advice and new turbo Mr Gentleman.

For sure its the inlet valve stem oil seals.
High vacuum at tickover and after a few mins you get a little white smoke, then it gets slowly worse till you have a real smoke screen. rev it up and it clears.
Cant be my turbo...as Im normally aspirated...........LOL :lol:
