About oil return/oil inlet how do i turn it around?

On my turbo its a garrett t3/04e i have it mounted so filter on left 5bolt on right...normal way.....and the oil return is facing up...and inlet facing down...it was rebuilt so is it possible it got floped. Can i just undo the bolts on the exhaust houseing and turn it around and put them back on?

all you gotta do is loosen the 6 bolts on the compressor and loosen the 6 bolts on the turbine, you dont have to take them completely out, and then just twist the center section.
