Raw fuel pouring out of t25 after removal

The turbo does have shaft play. When I drained the oil it smelt like straight gas

What would cause the both to mix. The headgasket wasn't blown by the combustion chamber

Are you saying you drained the engine oil and it smelled like gas?

Running excessively rich and/or having blow-by can cause gas to get into the oil.

If you drained the engine oil, how much came out? More than you put in?
 
aThere is no possible way its straight fuel. I could definitely buy a oil/fuel ration though.

Yes, when I drained the oil before taking out the turbo it smelt like gas. I got a big wiff of it before dumping it into the waste oil drum.
About the same amount I put in came out. I have a wideband I'm putting in when I put my car all together so ill know exactly how its running. I'm hoping its something stupid. My father in law thinks its from cycling the key, and also my battery was close to dead the last time I started it so it took awhile to crank over. I ran it for about 5 minutes. That was a week or two ago.
 
If the engine oil stunk like gas, the engine oil film all over the turbine housing will also smell like gas. ;)
