Turbo oil seal gone? 1991 350SDL

I have oil seeping from the fittings on the intake manifold so I pulled the crossover pipe to find this

The car runs great, turbo works good, and there is no oil in the exhaust pipe. If the inner turbo seal is gone, is there a kit available to rebuild it? I'm sure a rebuilt turbo would be expensive. The car has 309k miles and only minor oil consumption. I'm going to pull the intake manifold soon in order to ream the glow plug ports so that will be a good time to clean the intake. I disconnected the vacuum to the EGR valve a few months ago.
