Default 2.7t oil leak

I recently had my car up on a lift at tune time in toms river to get some work done and the guy said my turbos are leaking oil. I knew I had a small oil leak because I have to add oil every once in a while but I didn't think it was the turbos. What seals do you think are leaking? I didn't really ask the guy. I honestly don't have the money to have Audi fix the seals. How much do you think It would run for someone else to do the job on average? I want to get this fixed the cheapest way obviously.

Usually turbos dont leak externally. Generally when a turbo goes bad the seal goes bad in the CHRA and leaks into either the turbine or compressor housing. Check your valve cover gaskets, those can drip everywhere and may be misleading.
