Default clogged turbo?

The coolant supply hose going to the turbo (APR/GT25) burst open and started leaking coolant. From the looks of it, it seems that it may have been due to pressure build-up, not dry rot (the coolant supply hose literally "burst open" where the coolant came out; it was not due to a tear). So how likely is it that perhaps some particle got stuck in the turbo (or engine?) and is impeding coolant flow? Is there any way to test this?

I couldn't find anything related in the archives.
