Default turbo help needed

hi, its not on my Rs, but on my Punto GT,

its just a standard car what the missus use, but yesterday, the car has developed a like screaming noise on full boost, not on spool up, i think its gotta be from the turbo, could be the bearings, theres no smoke or anything?

i wanted to know really if a hole in any boost pipes or inlet manifold gasket or even loose turbo exhaust housing or even a cracked housing could cause this noise

these cars are shit to work on and changing the turbo looks a c*nt, so any easy things to try would help!

cheers
