Oil leak.

Ok, please forgive my lack of knowledge of part names here. The picture is foe illustration. My 05 F250 cc automatic has oil on the low side of the metal tube that's going into the blue one (as seen in photo). I can not seem to locate source or reason for. Any thoughts or suggestions? Thanks

I can't get the picture to pull up. Is it one of the CAC tubes that's connected to the intercooler/turbo?

If you have oil seeping through any of the blue boots, cac hoses, they are leaking and should be replaced. If oil can permeate the hose it can also leak boost press. The oil is from the cvc system and is normal.

After looking further, Its the metal tube on passengers side that goes to turbo and has blue hose/boots.

Thanks for the info. One last question. I have heard there is an aftermarket tube to replace the plastic One. My truck is an 05.
