if the turbo is leaking oil, the turbine end piston ring needs replacement because it's worn out.
If the piston ring got worn out, it's because the bearings also did. So they need replacement too.
A rebuild kit includes stock bore rings and bearings while you might need oversized ones to compensate for the wear of the shaft and housing in order to eliminate the play that caused the problem in the first place. To install them, machining of the housing and shaft is necessary.
If you take the rotating assembly apart, shaft "ALWAYS" needs to be straightened and rotating assembly "ALWAYS" needs to be rebalanced. over 20K$ of equipement is required to do so properly and with reliable enough results.
