Default Question about oil near the MAF

I was just cleaning my MAF sensor and decided to take off the rest of the intake hosing to clean. Right where the black hosing meets the silver bi-turbo intake pipes (where the pipes come together and curl off to the left), there was a small pool of oil. Is this common?

I know that the engine actually vents excess oil out of the head to the intake to be burned with the fuel, but im just hoping it isnt my TURBOS! She has 91k miles...
