grey oily leak under turbo

was tinkering around with my rs and under the turbo i see some sort of leak going on and theres some splatter on the downpipe of the same stuff, its grey. doesn't look or smell like oil or coolant.

Here's some pics and it actually looks muddy.

Kind of looks like it. Splatters everywhere when the boot tears.
