My buddy and I were putting my old Bonez intake on his 86' BMW 325 e and when we got the MAS off, we noticed oil in there and in the flex tube from the the TB to the MAS. What gives, is this a valve problem?

it could be blow-by(bad rings), or it could be something simple as a clogged PCV valve. If it's a little oil, not really much to worry about, i'm sure the car has a gazillion miles
