Default Oil in my cold Air intake tubes

I just took my turbo of my truck. I noticed that there is a good amount of oil caked inside the tubes and all the way to the intake. Is this normal to get some oil in there or is there a bigger problem. Thanks
It's a 03' f250 6.0 with 216,000 miles.

I wouldn't classify it as "normal" but yes all trucks do it unless something it done about it. The CCV (crankcase ventilation) tubing comes off the top/front of the driver side valve cover and straight into the intake. I rerouted mine straight down (atmospheric dump which now coats my driveshaft and axle ) when I had the motor torn down because I didn't want oil everywhere on my new intercooler boots/piping making my engine bay look like s#!+. Soon I'll be doing a filter system on it.
