How would that work if the intake pipes aren't pressurized?
You need to build a pressure tester like sds13coupe linked to above... Then attach it to your hotpipe or compressor inlet and pressurize your intake system to 10-15psi. Then listen for leaks or spray soapy water on the connections. Some areas to look at are your silicone couplers, TPS/TB Shaft seal, IM gaskets, vac lines, injector orings and FPR.

Do you have a catch can? That oil is most likely from the PCV system.. Otherwise you may have turbo oil seal going out.
