Default scavage pump

Hi Guys
ok heres my ????
I finally swapped out my stst scavage pump
for a exa pump mini
after a lot of sweat and swearing (I didn't even know I knew
those words) I got it in but bone head move did not check
the direction it was turning and started car and of course
it was running backwards so needless to say I blew out oil
from the tail pipe
now what I need to know is did I kill the seals in the turbos
or will they servive
it only ran maybe a minute till alarm went off and only at idle
but quite a bit of oil blew by

Thank you

I doubt it. One way to find out is run the system and see if you have any oil loss issues.

Turbo will be fine, there are no seals to blow out, at least if journal bearing.
