X Trail oil leak? Turbo?

    Advice welcome please!

    2016 Nissan X Trail, 90K KMS done, full Nissan service history.
    Noticed oil leak around what I assume is the turbo system, I have attached pictures, one with a couple of arrows indicating where I can see 2 separate (I think) oil leaks. (Last pic is a close up of the arrow on the left).
    Car driving fine with no lights or warnings displayed.

    Not due a service for 9K KMS, and dipstick reads just below full for oil today.

    I did ask a friend of a friend mechanic who told me to clean or wash it off and wait to see if it comes back again, but I'm not so sure if that's the right thing to do, but then I'm no mechanic..

    All opinions appreciated, really wondering if this is something I should get sorted ASAP, as have several long journeys coming up soon.

    Many thanks in advance,
    Scienceless.
