Do you mean a picture of the compressor side? I now know that the exhaust side is gone. I can still post a pic of the exhaust side if you like.
This is in a 2008 E450 cutaway van that used to be an ambulance. It has 171,300 miles on it.

Lube would be good, I bet it's pretty dry in there.
I'm still wondering how the blown turbo turned this 6.0 in to a no start.

What size wrench did you have to drop in to do that mess?

If you smoke the turbo and keep driving it..... one could start punching holes in the pistons from high EGT's. I could not drive over 45 MPH or slight grades because the temps would climb.
A no start can be anything, one would have to do the process of elimination instead of guessing.

I would start by checking compression in all cylinders. And I would not invest in a turbo until you get it running. This engine may be toast. What does the oil look like? Any metal parts in the oil pan? Are you able to check low pressure oil while cranking? To verify the low pressure oil pump is good. Any codes?

It had the anti-theft code in it, but then it cleared and didn't come back. I don't have a scangauge yet to look deeper.
