Yes - oil in the intake is completely normal - I installed the Banks Technicooler and the old intercooler and tubes were full of oil. I took it to a dealer, and they said it is completely normal. One problem is the oil breather venting into the intake - there is an article in the tech info section here that tells you how to get that vent out of the intake and direct it back to the rear of the truck - I plan on doing it soon. I would think that it might cut down on cold engine smoking at little as well.
