I believe it is not available as a stand alone part, so you may have to buy the complete turbo either new or a recon. Can I ask what has led you to this conclusion?yµ (idµ - eAµ) ψ=mψ

Did you have to remove the turbo and tried to find the coat hanger trick ?

Turbo
Looking at these I thinking it may be better to get the turbo checked first.

If the linkage is stiff, it's likely to be carbon build up inside. You can put wynns vvt cleaner in the diesel.
The actuator should try and move when the ignition is turned on and off,
and also pull back if you try and move it with the ignition on.
If they don't do this the motor is likely to be at fault. Disconnect the linkage and repeat tests (but ensure the linkage is pointing out of harms way)
