Default oil in charge pipes

i did a search and it seems there is supposed to be a little in there but i mean when i pull the pipe off by the intercooler enough is in there what it poors out and is being blown out threw the BOV. i was told it could be the oil return? is that possible or is that too much and the turbo is blow. its a drag kit so it has that gay *** fixed/welded return line.

Oil seals in the turbo are likely dead. It needs a rebuild or replaced.

About the return, if its not a nice down hill shot to the pan... and the oil sits in the turbo is gonna push past the seals.

If the oil can pass through the seal then the seals arent doing it job and need to replace. So to andswer your question the seals are no good. I think a full rebuild is like 300 i could be wrong. GL!
