Post Help - where is this oil coming from?

Hello, long-time reader, first time poster!

Grateful for any suggestions of where this oil could be coming from, so I can hopefully avoid dismantling stuff unnecessarily?!

Oil spots seen on the driveway, power steering level is a bit low, but so is oil tbf! Not seen anything with engine running, or after.

2006 XC90, just crossed 150k miles. P0244 fault code showing occasionally (on my to-do list!) but otherwise running ok.

Looks typical of a split intercooler. The oil is from the turbo, however some oil presence is pretty normal in the boost pipework.

+1 likely to be the intercooler.
