Default oil in my intake mani...why???

i took of my TB to day to put on my new one and there was quite a bit of oil in my intake. I have a breather on my valve cover (thats what everyone has been asking). Would a catch can take care of this or do you need more info??? also i had my turbo rebuilt and upgraded and the guy told me there was excesive oil in my compressor housing. He asked about my pcv system are these two thing related??? thanks for you help.

check ur charge piping also, see if there is oil in it right were it connect to the turbo..

if there is, ur turbo's seals have probably been oversoaked...and are leaking, need to be replaced

Yes hook your pcv system back up. as far as the oil it's most likely from a bad oil seal in the turbo. or the turbo is clocked wrong...
