Default help turbo seal q

had to tear out my turbo, when i put it back in, i somehow managed to Kink the oil return hose at a pretty sharp angle. I didnt notice anything until my car started smoking.

upon inspection i found the kinked hose, and noticed a puddle of oil the size of a dime at the turbo inlet.

Did i fry my turbo?

thanks,
-Ryan

Unkink the line and run it. See what it does. If it's still spewing oil, then you blew a seal. If it's fine, it's fine.
