Default i got some metal grime in my turbo oil

i was sanding off the part of my turbo where u bolt on the oil feed line flange, and i saw a bunch of little metal dust go in the turbo where the oil goes in. i had it plugged and when i unplugged it, i saw some of it fall down there. i then tried to blow it out and it looked like i got all of it. but stupid me went on and Hondabonded the flang and the gasket on there then screwed it on. now when i spinn the spool it makes a little grinding noise and doesn't spin as freely as it used to. the hole for the oil to go into my tubo in the flange is 1.7mm so its not too big. anyone have any ideas how to get it out? like water? or oil? or air compressor? i really need to get this turbo clean.

take turbo compeltely appart and clean everything? oil it up and then re-assembly. STOP spinnign it, your damaging the bearings.
