M8 leaking coolant into motor

I have a turboed 2007 m8 that has an elusive coolant leak into the motor. I've replaced the head gaskets and base gaskets, but it continues to leak about 16 ounces per ride through the motor. Does anyone have an idea what it might be? Any help is much appreciated.
 
When I pull the pipe I can see a tan color in the y-pipe and moisture. I have no antifreeze leaking in the belly pan, tunnel cooler or anywhere else. I replaced the head gaskets first, and it still leaked. Then I did the base gaskets and head gaskets and still leaking.
 
I had a seal or bearing go out of the water pump impeller and it was leaking into the motor, this was leaking at a fast rate though.
