Default Oil in DV hose?

Just wondering what this is, and if it's cause for concern: I swapped out my DV's and TDD today, and on the drivers' side, the top hose (the one connecting to the silver Y-pipe), appeared to have oil inside of it...
My car holds oil just fine and is not making any noises, has no CEL's, etc.
Is this a bad thing? Normal? Sign of failure?
Thanks for any input~

No its normal to have a little oil in the intake system, if its an excessive amount then change out your PCV valve assembly thats connected to the side of the silver Y pipe.
