Some adventure Huh :-)
sadly Bolts shearing is Common.. Rascals musta used all the good steel in the Block cuz the overall bolt quality is abysmal.
Do go to the trouble of replacing the main seal, and reinstall it so the seal lip is on a slightly different spot.
Turbo coolant/oil tubes can look horrible.. but usually this is only superficial.. as I found out when I went on the same mission as you.. waste 'o time in the end, I finally cleaned and painted 'em.. worked a treat. Also undo the oil pipes at the Filter head and re O ring them.. Parts store O rings are Pennies apiece.
There's LOTSA stuff to relube and RePack while it's all rather easily accessible.. if you don't you will surely regret it later :-)
If really Fastiduous you can even brush on some fresh paint on that removable Subframe thing.. prolly needs it badly by now.
