No need for any manuals. It's pretty simple. If the leak is on the lower end, you may have blown the hose that runs from the turbo to the block. You need to find a turbo repair house. they can sell you a hose. Get the blue type, made out of teflon. Bring the old one for size.

If the leak is in the turbo housing, you've blown the gasket. you have three choices for the gasket: 1 Dealer; 2 the turbo place 3. Make it yourself.

when mine leaked, I made a gasket and put it on. It's a little tricky, but not too tough. You'll need some hex sockets.
