needed: primary exhaust housing for stock twins

I need an exhaust housing for my stock primary turbo. I have very recently had the motor pulled out to be rebuilt, to find out that I need both a new exhaust manifold, and a new housing. Does NE one have either of these lying around or not needed, in good working order? I really need a set of those soon. Either that, or I could just splurge and get a new set, but I had the turbos rebuilt nearly 300 miles before the motor blew(stupid decision because I dont know if my manifold or compressor housings were cracked already). The problem is now, that I have new turbo internals, and a cracked housing and exhaust manifold. I know that this is very common due to the rediculous amount of heat that the stocks put out, but none the less, I need new ones, or ones in good working condition.

at the very least, if someone could point me in a good direction as to where to get them, or how much those two components cost, this would be helpful as well. If those two specific parts alone aren't/are available for sale individually, please let me know. I have no idea how much these things generally cost, so an estimated price within reason would be fine. Again, thanks for any help.

I ended up getting a set of turbos that had less than 20K (the housing was mint) for $100 off www.thepartstrader.com. I would try there.
