Is that normal? It was not a ton, just some. It just seemed out of place to me.

Check my thread "Kind of a big problem" a couple down from this one. You may be in the same boat.

I posted this on AW as well and the general consensus is that this is normal. This is actually the reason that so many people are installing catch cans. Perhaps you should go read a couple of those threads...hopefully it will have an answer for you .

Yeah, after searching around I have heard this, too. Prolly a breather line feeding into the intake. But in the situation I'm dealing with, the turbo is 85% for sure blown.
