Default Turbo guys, need help, exhaust housing spraying oil

I started my car for the first time yesterday and about 10seconds after starting it oil started SPRAYING out of the exhaust housing. I immediately thought my seals were blown so I took off my charge pipes, they were clean? So my buddy suggested taking the return line off the turbo and lettting it drain straight into a catch can(incase the line was kinked). I did that, it still sprays oil out the exhaust housing. So I don't know what to do now. If it's blown seals how come my charge pipes are clean?

Bad seal on the exhaust side.

I was afraid of that Will a shop that does rebuilds be willing to only fix the exhaust side seal? I don't really care enough about this turbo to have a full rebuild done.

Doubt it. I sent my old turbo out to have the seals replaced for a second time (it had just got rebuilt) they wanted to replace the bearing and all on it, it had less then 200miles on them
