Oil Leak

Oil Leak
The other day I drove about 40 miles and lost 2 quarts of oil. When I opened the hood there was oil everywhere. My first thought was that the front seal had gone. After I got the timing belt covers off the area was pretty dry. I would think if I was loosing that much oil from the front seal the TB would be soaked. Upon further inspection I found that the turbo oil return line was a little loose at the block and brittle.
Question: Do you guys think I could loose 2 quarts of oil in 40 miles of highway driving from the return line or should I keep looking for the leak?
The hose wasn't loose enough to pull off but I could twist it with my hand.
Standard Gerddy install with the 5 foot return line running to the right side of the engine. Line was downhill all the way.
