*searched* turbo question

I've been searching for about two hours. My turbo has stains on the hotside where the hotside meets the dp flange.my car wasnt starting until today and when it did start,I saw smoke near the turbo area. it looks like the oil is coming from inside the housing. I checked shaft play, there's some shaft play in and out and very minimal play left to right, and there is no oil on the cold side or no oil dripping,no bent fins, and no oil on the tid? Is my turbo blown? Or is it just oil that was sitting and needs to get burned or run the turbo?any help is greatly appriciated.
