New or rebuilt? Have you added oil to the engine level lately? Pull the intake boot and see if you have oil on the inlet side of the compressor.. Did the shop prelube and purge the inlet lines..

Edit.. Which flange the Cat, or ?? Are your valve cover gaskets leaking.. Is the oil inlet lines tight and not leaking from above...

I've had this problem. The intercooler hose was lose at the turbo connection.
