Reclocking the turbo would be easy IF the bolts weren't seized due to the heat these turbo's run at on the exhaust side.......I snapped the head off one tonight trying to free it. So thats a no go.

I am ordering a MaximumPSI oil sump kit tomorrow that will solve any issues, it will pull the oil out and send it right into the oil pain. It should solve all issues. I have no choice at this point.
Do it right and take the turbo back out replace the bolts and clock it, a sump is only a bandaid and not perfect, though you should run one anyway since you look to be pretty close to the oil level.

Not as much of a problem for a ball bearing, but keep in mind the pump may actually pose a restriction, how much boost will you be running?

Also I thought your new turbo was a gt35, what is your OLD turbo.
