It's ment to have a split in it to allow water to come out but not in.
And if you have a lot of oil in the filter something is wrong!!
Ever heard of a car running on its on oil??
This is how it happens

No, it means oil is getting passed the turbo.
Why replace headgasket, when you can put a little bit more and get a 200 or 300tdi engine
trying to restore it bit by bit so how would you say i corect this problem?
and will this be affecting my preformance?

Performance ha ha on a 19J you have got to be kidding right??
They are very slow engines anyway.
To solve oil problem you will need a recon turbo.

Headgasket and turbo ain't gonna be cheap hence the 200tdi suggestion

Look on eBay and find a GOOD secondhand turbo, but even then it's a gamble
cant i just take that turbo off and get it refurbed?

Whoa whoa whoa Before you go spending loadas of money that you don't need to spend. Oil in the filter on a TD is very common. But it's rarely the turbo. Is the engine breathing?? I:E when you remove the oil filler cap does smoke come out of it?
broken piston rings or worn bores or a partially blocked oil pick up filter as well as a blown Head gasket, can all cause "crankcase pressurisation" which will force oil into the filter housing.

whoa where do i start?
i know that head gasket is leaking gona get that sorted there is oil round the turbo. but it is old lol
the filler cap on this engine comes off so i had to hold it down with wire till i can make some kind of braket.
because the pipe whitch come to the cap is trying to push it off.

Get a new filler cap.
take the pipe off and put ya thumb over the end of it whilst the engines running If pressure builds up and tries to force ya thumb off the pipe it's crankcase pressurisation.
In fact do a search of the forum this has been covered lots of times. Think POS did a thread on how to diagnose a knackered 19J

It sounds like the turbo is ok. The oil in the turbo is more than likely coming from the breather that comes from the oil filler cap (which you said is coming off. Breathing heavy) to the air filter pipe. Did the air filter box have oil the bottom? ( bet ya it did).
All this is very common with a heavy breathing 19j engine. Alot of people (like me) have just relocated the pipe from the filler to inside the chassis leg until a 200tdi conversion is done. Unless you are a purist dont waste money on the engine just throw away and do the 200 conversion.
