If you're getting oil, then I don't know why it died.
You might try PTCrew.Com - more turbo gurus there...
Even without the oil flow, it's cooled by engine coolant. I would think that would take care of the heat issues until the bearings give out.
Thanks for the help and I'll check out PTCrew. If I get it figured out, I'll get back with feedback.
