lots
oil light might be due to not enough oil but if the oil level is ok then first 3 options are bad oil pump bad bearings or bad turbo seals
Turbo noise needs to be checked Take the air intake pipe off and by hand with engine off try and move the shaft side to side and back and forwards. There must be no side movement and only a tiny movement back and forwards. Try and spin the shaft. It should be smooth and fairly free
If you are lucky its just a turbo needs replacing but could be a full engine rebuild

Sanding your knuckles before starting work can help. That way you cant skin them
