Oil in EGR spacer???


When i took my throttle body and IAC off to clean i noticed there was a pretty good amount of oil sitting in my EGR spacer.

is that normal? or is this something i have to worry about?

It's from your PCV system, it's normal. It's a probably good idea to clean it up though and replace the PCV valve. Some people go with catch cans or whatever so they don't have to muck up their intake.

Common, Yes. Normal, No. The resion you have that much oil in there is prob due to blow by. Most of these 5.0's are older and the wear on the motors causes blow by that pressurizes the crank case and vents more than normal air into the TB bringing some oil with it. If this is a big problem rebuild the motor.....ok out a breather on the valve cover not the oil cap and that help alot.
