So I've been noticing that my air filter has had oil on it the past few times I've taken it off. It is definitely not anything external cause I've made a small heat shield on one side of it. The is oil residue on the piping when I take the filter off. Do you guys think it would be wise to get an oil catch can on my vac line?

How is your vac line from the valve cover routed? I only noticed oil on my pipe and filter when I routed the hose from my VC to the intake pipe instead from VC to throttlebody.
