minimum req'd parts for 2.3t G17 turbo replacement

failed to add my name to last post on earlier post, thought I might try with new heading
--------------
Received a rebuilt G17 today.
It came with a new exhaust manifold gasket and oil return gasket.
I'm assuming that I can pick up new copper crush washers at local auto parts store.
Is the o-ring for the inlet tube something that I might find at local store?
Can the oil feed tube be inspected easily, and cleaned if necessary, or should I just buy a new one?
Since this turbo went catastrophic, and I continued to drive for a minute (or so) trying to get to safe place to pull over, belching smoke the entire time, should I assume that the intercooler has oil in it that I should try to remove?
I was probably 10 minutes into the drive, at mostly highway speeds when this occured. I don't know how hot the catalytic converter was at the time. Assuming that it wasn't hot enough to instantly get cooked with oil, should I try to remove it, dump (or clean some how) the oil out before starting car back up (with new turbo)?
Any other parts or things I should replace or do?
thanks
