Default Oil Residue

Well pulled some more pipes and upon running my fingers through the pipe I noticed there is oil residue around some of the charge pipes. For those of you that didnt know I had quite a bit of oil on my BOV pipe, flange, and inside the bov. Wondering if this could be just oil in the bov. Or should I worry about the dryish oil residue in the pipes?

see if there is more oil near the turbo. if your oil is coming out the compressor, the seals might be leaking.

I checked. Its no real wet oil by the compressor. Just the dryish residue. Also my pcv valve is not connected to my intake.
