Depends on how bad a leak. They may need replaced. I'd sure try again.

Once more, the drain isn't the boost issue. The oil leak isn't the boost issue, unless the turbine is bound and not spinning properly and also leaking oil. I've seen turbos puke oil but still boost.

As a note, I've bought several things from Mike. He's a good guy and easy to deal with. If the turbo was/is defective out of the box, I'm sure he will make it right.
