Default turbo oil leak?

I have a oil leak coming from my turbo. the oil is coming from the bolt that clocks the turbo.
Is the turbo bad?

Do I have to buy a new one?

Seal might be gone. You could probably do a re-build and be ok, unless your housing is cracked. Was the car smoking bad under boost? What kind of turbo is it? Here is a t3/t4 rebuild kit that is pretty good. http://www.treadstoneperforman...d+Kit
