Default Turbo Seals are Bad.... will Oil in my Engine F' it UP?!?!?!!??!!???!

I've got a T3 garret turbo and the oil seals are Bad in it, and it's putting oil throught the charge pipes, intercooler and no-doubt I'd assume the engine. when i pop my hood, i can see oil residue on the underside of the hood from the 1G BOV blowing some oil onto the hood, I'm sure some it's goin into the engine, but not much. Between leaking oil, burning it out the exhaust side(from the seals) and a bit in the piping/motor, i go through about 1qt every 2 weeks... could the F' up my motor getting a little oil in it I don't want to make the rings take a $hit or anything... the Z6 in my car is stout and perfectly ran before i boosted it, so i don't want to hurt it's already perfect condition for something like this thanks guys

no. soetimes a head gasket will blow and allow coolent or combustion into the coolent, or sometimes oil as far as i know, it wont hurt anything unless its got some deposits in there like sand and grit and ----.

that's relieving to know, thanks guys. I wasn't sure because i know if you run Too rich for a long time your rings can take a dump from being saturated with gasoline for so long, i didn't know if oil did the same thing.. "phew"
