Sounds like the turbo might be fine as is. Leave it alone. You can't reseal that turbo because it doesn't have any real seals. If it is leaking then the shaft needs to be refurbished so that the oil slingers can deflect the oil properly and new bearings need to be matched to the center section to keep everything tight.
Possible oil got into the compressor side from the intake pipe, which would be normal.
Good luck with the turbo mod.
