Default Oil leaking from intercooler. TDCI

Hi

Wife call me this morning saying that we were leaking oil near the front of the car. I got her to check the level and it was OK so she said she would drop by a mechanic. He discovered that it was leaking from one of the seals for the intercooler and refereed us to Diesel experts near by.

Now, my googleing just now suggests that some is OK/normal and maybe I just have to clean it out and see if it builds back up again. However, Lots of oil could be the turbo seals on the way out. I was thinking option 1 and keep an eye on it.
The car has done about 122,000Km.

Thoughts, ideas, expert advice?
