Blown CT20B turbo

Hi there.  Got a bunch of questions about turbos, have done a few quick searches but not found much conclusive info.  Please point us in the right direction if these questions have been answered before.
 
Just bought a sw20 mr2 on the weekend.  Looks like I made the schoolboy error of getting one with a blown turbo, judging by the amount of black metallic pasty oil all over the inside of the intake plenum and intercooler piping.  Not really familiar with turbo cars - I'm guessing the turbo's blown it's seals a fair while ago for there to be metallic paste there.
 
Planning to pull the turbo out this week (and probably a compression test too) - if it looks ok, might have a go at rebuilding it myself.  Apparently it's got a CT20B (CT26C2?) - are these reasonable to rebuild? I read something about shops replacing the turbines with steel (so effectively a CT26?) and something else about there being a high chance of breaking the ceramic turbine if I do it myself...
 
If it's pretty rooted, where should I look for a replacement?  Would replace with the same unless the CT26 is much cheaper.
 
Would appreciate any help as I'd like to drive the thing again soon!

yeah if the cars boosting fine then my guess would be accumulation of pcv gunk over the years. if it was blown turbo seals wouldnt it come out thru the exhaust???

Ok no I'm not sure it's from the catch can - I'll check it out tomorrow, would be great if that's all it is.
 
It seems to spool up pretty well but don't really have a baseline to compare to.  There's a little smoke for a few seconds on startup and sometimes leaves a plumb of dark smoke under full boost.  I thought it was just rich until I looked in the intake.  Looks a bit like this:

 
Tipsiduece, are you saying I'd see smoke from blown seals? Because I really don't know how much to expect.
 
Thanks for all the responses, I'll let you know what I find.

I would check to see if the car smokes from the exhaust while under load first,
 
Also check your turbo for shaft play, and I would clean out the hot pipe with petrol then go for a drive if you see oil back in the hot pipe again then you know the seal is leaking.
 
On the CT series the seal is round like a mini piston ring, so the only time it will leak is when the bearings / shaft on the turbo is worn and you have radial play, the ring and bore on wears down and oil escapes, the way these seals work is when the turbo is in motion, the faster is spins the more it seals so somtimes it can be normal to get very small amount of oil in the piping system.
 
I rebuilt a few CT26's before and I would suggest to take photo's as there are a lot of little parts inside and you might need an oxy torch to heat up and separte the exhaust housing, also 100% you will need to take it to a turbo specialist to have it balanced afterwards.
 

A bit of oil in the pipes and bit of shaft play is normal for the 3SGTE,
 
Once you can see the wheel is wearing down the side of the comp cover its time for a rebuild.
 
How many kms has your two done?

Sounds like regular build up to me, does the car smoke from the exhaust?
 
Also with those kms I would inspect the timming belt, you would not want it snapping at 6000rpm.

a little smoke is to be expected of turbo's this old but definately worth a check up, hope it all goes well mate.
