Message New engine runs great, but I haven't driven it as much as I'd like due to these leaks that I'm trying to sort out. The first one appears to be that power steering solenoid that's mounted on the rack, it will drip for a while after it's shut off but then stops. Should this not be RED ATF that is leaking..because what's leaking is oil, and I don't know if that's what it's supposed to be.

Before the engine was put in I cleaned the intake/intercoolers pipes as best as I could(there was oil in them from the stock turbos), but im sure there was some oil still in there somewhere. As you see in the photo there is a bit of oil just hanging from where the turbo inlet pipe connects to. These are BRAND NEW sport 530s, so I think this could be the old oil in the pipes? I am not burning any oil from the tailpipes.
