'94 850 Turbo Repair / Replacement? 850 1994

I have a '94 850 Turbo that is leaking (no evidence of burning) oil. I had it at a local shop who identified this as the problem, but I don't really trust them. I was considering removing and possibly rebuilding the turbocharger myself. Should I consider it?

I have decent mechanical skills, most common tools, but not a great deal of time. I also have a Haynes manual that has some basic removal/reinstallation instructions, but nothing on rebuilding the turbo. Could this likely be an oil seal problem? Any thoughts or advice that you can impart will be appreciated. Thanks.
