So I've got an oil leak that's coming from above the turbo return line (I checked that yesterday). Looks like it's coming from around the exhaust manifold area. I did some searching and it seems like this is my exhaust cam seal that needs replacing? If that sounds right, how do you go about replacing the seal? Thanks.

Remove Cam position sensor (2 torx screws #40) than hall effect generator from cam shaft (10mm). Carefully screw in a self tapping screw into cam seal (do not use power drill) and pull the screw out with a plier. Seal will come out with a little pull.
Tap in new seal (part number: 9443310, I have 97 850 GLT turbo and I noticed Volvo changed the seal design) with large socket (32 or 33 mm, slightly smaller than seal diameter).
I disconnected the air claner box and the clean air tube to turbo before cam seal replacement for easy access and to repalce/clean some PCV hoses and connector.
Good luck.
