Should I clean the oil lines to turbo?

Hi All,
I have my oil pan off (report & pics to come) for a checkup, a little bit of "coffee grounds" but not much, nothing to speak of in the oil strainer pickup.
My question to the experts is- should I remove the lines to the turbo and clean them out? It would certainly appear that anywhere there has been oil actively flowing there is no buildup of sludge/particulate but hearing of all the turbo failures I'm wondering if it's a good idea "while I'm at it".
Seems to be that most of the turbo failures are with the lpt B235E or V6 motor, not the Aero B235R. Is that a fair assessment?
Thanks to all the Saabnetters who've posted before, much of the required info was simply gained through searching the archives.
Cheers
