How much shaft play

Today I was hearing an odd vibration From 2,500 to 3,000. I bought this turbo used and know it’s got some miles on her. It had zero play a few years ago. I know the exhaust gaskets are leaking when it’s cold not sure if this is the noise I’m hearing I believe they are getting worse. Let me know your thoughts.

 
I'm no expert by any means, but Ive seen a lot worse that were actually fine and/or brand new. The blades don't look like they are coming anywhere near the walls. Also as the turbo warms up, I'd expect that wiggle room to be reduce due to thermal expansion
