Default oil in my left diverter valve

hey guys just installed my baileys. upon removeing thel left side stock diverter valve it had oil in it.i also notice oil on the lower pipe that go's to the intercooler. does this mean that my turbo is bad? the car runs strong and there is no noise coming from the turbos.

It should be fine, there is some blow by. Remove your lower IC pip & see what's in there.

How much oil? If it's just a light lining around the pipping then you shouldn't worry, but it does mean it's growing a little weak.
