Oil In Boost Pipes.

Good evening all, I've just replaced my boost hoses with forge silicone ones because I thought I had a leak. (quite smokey)

Upon removal, the original hoses are quite oily, is this normal? The smokiness doesn't appear to be blue (as in burnt oil) but does this mean my turbo is on the way out?

I get a big plume as the turbo spools up.

Cheers.

Strange that. Assuming it's a euro 4, egr valve may be stuck open, so with it unplugged it wouldn't make a difference.

I noticed some oil in my pipes too, but I guess it's normal, mine has done 135k. If it drives alright, and power is there, you shouldn't worry.
