Errr, there shoulld't be oil in the compressor side at all, unless the previous owner was careless and spilled some into it. Sounds like bad seals.

dunno man. A decent amount of oil was prolly still in the center if it was just taken off. Depending on how it was packed i guess some could have gotten on there.
