Default white stains on turbo back flange

Hi

I had my car on the hoist on saturday(bugeye) and i was just having a look around and i noticed a stain the size of half a 5 dollar note where the turbo and dump pipe meet. I know this is caused by burning coolant, so its either turbo seal is gone due to the fact it has a coolant feed or its the head gasket(s).
If you have experienced this just tell me what was the cause.

If coolant was leaking from the seals into the exhaust, you would have smoke out the tail pipe. But yes, pic's would help.
