Never was a turbo diesel square. Aftermarket.
Would you happen to know what company would have included that plaque? It's a Detroit and as far as I know there was Banks and ATS for turbo options. Truth be told I still can't find were my turbo is but you can hear it loud and clear!

The intake muffler should connect to the rad support.

@TheBigBlue2500 I'd suggest you check your exhaust for a harmonica or the whistle that came with the Turbodiesel badge, because there is no turbocharger on that engine. :(

That fender emblem looks really familiar, but I can't place it. I think it's OE, just not from a GM truck.

Not sure what you’re taking pics of, but there ain’t a turbo hooked to the intake. That’s a factory NA setup afaik.
That would never pressurize.
99% sure you got no turbo just the stickers!
