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?

So will it hurt my engine if there is oil getting in through the intake?

It will destroy your catalytic converter
