Oil in inlet

Car  1991 Honda crx VT
Hey guys,

Cleaned my t/b the other day on my ph1 172 and noticed that the bottom vacuum pipe which sits directly under the butterfly had oilly remnants, on removal of the t/b I noticed that there was some oil in the inlet manifold. Car uses no oil whatsoever from the time I have owned it, what is the cause of this and how can I sort it? Had a search but can't find anything.

Cheers, Ben
 
It's normal mate, the car has an internal venting system which vents oil vapour back into the inlet.

Nothing to worry about
