I've already answered all of you questions as best I can without additional info.

If the intake is from a 7M-GE then it is possible the engine is a non-turbo engine which has has one added... not something I recommend. A couple easy ways to spot a conversion are:
The timing belt cover may still say "7M-GE".
The oil return from the turbo runs to a port added to the oil pan and not to the GTE return location in the block.
The intake pipe after the throttle body is a "Y".
The VIN number contains JT2MA70 (as opposed to JT2MA71 which is a VIN for a turbo model).... this would only indicate if the engine has been swapped OR converted to a turbo.
