Cossie coolant pipes?

Hi all

 

i just bought my first cossie a low mileage K plate 4wd it’s been modified and about 350bhp

 

i noticed when tracing the lines it has a 12v oil pump however those lines go to a small tank which if you open has coolant in it not oil. The other side goes from radiator  and after the tank it goes to a mini inter cooler? But no drain line or return 

 

also so the turbo charger has hoses back to the coolant header tank? I thought turbos were oil cooled?

 

question is what is this oil pump for? Is it additional cooling for the inter cooler? Even though it’s coolant and also do I top up this tank or does it top up from coolant tank?

 

ive driven 400 miles in 2 days and it’s drank all the engine oil! Most of it pisses out the crank breather out the vent and back through the cabin ventilation!
