Do I need to have the turbo rebuilt? I figure once I get the front seals replaced on the engine I will start it and see what happens. So, I guess my question is: Should I ship it off now?

Not necessarily. If you have corrected the crank case over pressure its likely the turbo will no longer push oil past the bearing rings now.
