ebay t517z

So i made a "wise" decision and bought a t517z off ebay. So it arrived today and low and behold its garbage, upon quick visual inspection theres a shit load of play not like the seller claimed "barely noticeable" then i turn it over and notice a hair line crack along the wastegate door seat. So at this point im thinking (ok maybe i can just rebuild since its not BB anyway and have the crack welded). So next i pop off the turbine snail and the fins on the backside of the turbine wheel look like someone took a f#$@ing hammer to them. Does anyone know where i can buy a new exhaust side turbine wheel because the only ones ive seem are the compressor side or the complete cartridge. Or marbe a doner turbo whose wheel might fit?
