2nd turbo went AWOL for a week

2 weeks ago i was engaged in some high lepton driving on my private circuit and all was well.

 

However i recently noticed that turbo 2 went a bit intermittent and then nothing happened at all when i went WOT.

 

I had a look on Sunday and found that pipe "A" in the photo had come loose and t-piece "B" had broken.

 

The pipe was reattached and i found the nearest t piece at halfrauds. Nothing happened again on the test drive so i bought a larger diameter t piece today and the 2nd turbo has retuned.

 

Could there have been any other damage whilst driving without those pipes in good order or have i just been lucky this time.
