Help needed!

Sorry to bore anyone with the details but I thought it was important to know the details in order to get the proper advice:

I spun out with my 930 after going around a curve after downshifting &slightly accelerating. The turbo kicked in, spun the car backwards & I skidded of the road backwards & ended up straddling a ditch. The car started up with no issue afterward & I ran it for only seconds. After a careful inspection from my mechanic, it was decided that there was no mechanical damage except for a broken weld on the exhaust & a slightly crushed oil line. After the car sat at the body shop for a while waiting for an estimate, I brought the car back to our shop (We were in the process of moving when this happened or we would have just made the repairs ourselves to begin with). There was minor damage to the rear bumper extension, rear valance & boxed rockers. We were able to squeeze the oil line in the vice & reshape the minor crushed area. After replacing the oil line my dad is noticing the oil blowing through the line from the oil tank that goes to the air cleaner. Any idea why this is happening or what it means?

How much oil are you talking about? A misting is normal, that's the point of the connection is to catch the vapors. Some install a separate catch can and empty periodically.

If it's spewing oil you may want to verify pressure and circulation. It could be that oil sloshed up during your widowmaker maneuver and it's slowly draining out.

Just to clarify, oil is coming out of the oil filler when the engine is running. It looks similar to that of an overheating radiator. Is there a pcv valve or pressure relief valve that would cause this? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

The other shop had overfilled it! Check the level when hot

I assume you mean oil is coming out of the air filter not oil filter. I thing to check is the turbo scavenger drain tank vent line which goes to the air filter housing. If something happened to the oil lines to the scavenger pump, oil could back up through the vent line to the air filter housing.
