Turbo Servicing - West Mids?

Ok my K03 fitted to my cinq had an unknown history when I bought it. I've noticed it leaves a fair bit of oil up the boost pipe on the intake compressor side.

I haven’t noticed any blue smoke out the back but this might still be an indicator the seals have started going (am not sure how much oil turbos are meant to release) but it seems to be only on the intake side if that’s possible but it's not dropped on the oil level despite the mess.

The turbo has a few physical modifications to it making it awkward to make it a direct exchange job as certain sections of it are ground down and it has a T2 actuator. I reckon it's best to get it looked at anyway so can any of you recommend any places in particular that offer collection? Also, any idea on the cost of getting it done?
