Oil in the rubber intercooler hose?

Hi chaps, just wondering is it normal to have some oil in the rubber hose on the exhaust side of the turbo? I cleaned the hose out then drove about 60 miles and accumulated around two tea spoons worth of oil in the hose. The car is a 1.6tdci. Thanks!

That's not normal, a slight mist is normal, I suspect a turbo oil seal is in the process of failing, is your cars oil level dropping and do you have smoke on acceleration?

Hi thanks for your reply! Strangely enough oil level is not dropping and car is not smoking either...in fact it seems to be running spot on.... 

could it potentially be something else? Like the PVC?
