So I've just purchased a 14 plate Mk3 Focus 1.6 TDCI  which I got for a fantastic price, I've just had it in to a main ford dealer for a service and they have picked up on an oil leak from around the throttle body housing (which they say is covered by the manufacturers warranty) and it's booked in for this repairing next week.

Here are a few pictures of the leak, just wondering if anyone with this engine has has had this ?

Also I've noticed this pipe which is in between the air box and turbo , it's held on with cable ties and it looks a bit tatty which makes me think it's been off before.

I think the tatty looking bit is a heat shield.  Looks like the turbo is right next to it, which will get might warm.

Yes my thoughts exactly, the car is an x-fleet car and has a full ford history but I can't say for sure if that tatty pipe hasn't been replaced, it is an original ford pipe because it has the FOMOCO logo stamped on it and some sort of aligning white marker paint on the pipe and the cable tie.

Hopefully more users with this engine could confirm?

Just had a quick Google image search of this engine and it does look like this is how it leaves the factory
