turbo question

ok so I just got my car running with an scm61 that was supposed to be rebuilt and my car burned a good chunk of oil before the turbo swap. now my car is burning a lot more oil than before. like a half a quart in 150 miles. then today I pulled the intake and there is oil (more of a residue) on the turbo inlet and there is a good amount of side to side play and some in and out.

so my question is am I safe to assume the turbo is shot? and needs a legitimate rebuild? thanks for any input
