OK, if you lost oil pressure, the delicate bearings in the turbo can easily be ruined.
Along with you, I have no idea if the replacement engine came with a turbo. Likely not as it is a valuable part by itself.
If you pull of the big hose that goes to the throttle and it is dripping with oil inside, you can assume your turbo is failing. The colder it is the more metal shrinks. I am going to suggest that you need a SAAB knowlegable person to actually look at the car. Before you spend any big money.
I have no idea what the manifold discrepancy might be as you put a question mark to indicate you are not sure which manifold.
In closing, it sounds like you may be looking for someone to blame and I can't help with that. Really, I would have to have the car and a couple of lawyers for that. What accent is that that you type with? I find your use of the word artifact intriguing.
