I have over 150,000 miles on my Burb. The Turbo is starting to leak oil from under it. Has anyone have had this problem? If so , are the seals the problem, can I get the parts and fix it my self?

could be the oil return gasket, those are easily found at local auto parts stores

The Diesel positive crankcase vent system, CDR, feeds into the turbo intake.
It is normal for some seepage to occur from the compressor\hose over period of time.

Clean the cool (not hot) engine with your choice of solution, then check again for a month or so.

Excess seepage could be loose intake coupling hose clamps, but clean and check for a while before tightening.

Thank you gentlemen, it allways pays to consult before you twist a bolt.
