2004 Passat 1.8 Turbo hot oil smell?

I have a 5 speed with 67k miles and get a significant wif in the car of burned oil as if it hit the exhaust manifold. The only pattern that it repeats is if I need to accelerate aggressively to blend in traffic then break aggressively when traffic checks up. When the car comes to a stop it will flood the car with the strong odor. It is not the known cover gasket. Could it be early signs of a turbo seal ??? No blogs I have read has a solution. Just dealers replacing the cover gasket and the issue still there.
