Default Fluid in vac line?

Ok well I was just tightning some crap up on my car and looked at my ugly clear plati-crap vac line for my autometer boost gauge. I noticed theres a few small splotches of clearish/yellow liquid in the lines (no i didnt pee in the bov) But there is allot of dark colored oil in the bov. Now I checked all the other pipes and no oil what so ever. So I took the bov (dsm 1g) off and cleaned it out, along with its charge pipe. And today its there again. Anyone have any idea whats going on?

Take the charge pipe off of the compressor and see if there is oil. If so, you have blown seals.

turbo could be leaking oil and you suck it up through the vacuum lines like the bov of something
