I would ask for a picture of the cracks.. If they are real small and just on the exhaust housing I do not see a big issue, but he does not even show the cracks in his picks.. I would get those if I were you just to see what he is talking about..

Get pictures of the cracks. Odds are they aren't that bad or he would have described them as such (at least you would hope.)

yea a lot of turbos have cracks but many are not significant dont buy until you feel sure. If u have doubt look else where.

The small cracks are pretty normal; just make sure they don't go all the way thru the housing.

Cracks on a 14b housing is normal

Just email him and ask for pics. You should also ask to see the compressor blades and turbine blades to see what condition they are in.
