Those cracks are all perfectly normal as far as number, location, etc. But they seem awefully deep... You didnt show a pic of it with the flapper closed, but if its off to one side, you can "adjust" it with a hammer. Over time the flapper arm will slide through the hole it comes through. Hard to exlain, easy to do.

The good news is that poeple blow up 14Bs all the time, and they are not worth rebuilding. So there are tons of decent turbine housings out there for short money. I usually pay 20 bucks at most. And they will all have cracks if they've ever been isntalled on a car. Just try to get one where the cracks are still too small to let any appreciable amount of exhaust gas through. And also note that this has no effect on max HP, just lag.
