I don't know the flange, but I recommend against spec'ing a turbo based on a random manifold you have. Might also be easier to just have a welder swap that flange for a T25 or something common.

You aren't going to find a turbo other than the one you already had. It's an OEM flange, probably off a small turbo-diesel.

Buy a new manifold, for real.

This.

Flange is probably $25 plus whatever the welding is
