Cool 1987 300D - oil leaks

My 300D is leaking a lot of oil these days. It has 229k and runs good, but leaks a lot of oil. The oil appears to be coming primarily from the front of the engine, but there is a bit of oil around the turbo as well. Are there certain seals and/or O-rings which common leaking points? Any assistance will be greatly appreciated.
