check your oil level, they are known for doing this if the oil is over filled even by a little bit.

main reason for oil (blue) on start up is one of these , over filled oil , valve stem oil seal ( possibly cooked valve stem oil seals on head hasket failure which should have been change any way with head job , weaping turbo , or piston ring sticking , but if piston ring you should see it on boost constnt , hope this helps Wink
if ring sticking best way to check is take oil filler cap off and check for heavy chuffing

Ok went out this morning and checked the oil level and its in between the 2 small holes in the dipstick but above the F mark and this time no smoke on startup so going to give it a bit of a blast later because last time it happened was after playing with the noisey pedal
