 4AGZE prob: oil residue in intercooler piping.

I have a ? problem with 4AGZE. I have recently cleaned the factory top mount intercooler so it had no oil residue.
Drove it for a day or two and i decided to inspect the intercooler again. To my suprise it had moderate fresh oil residue in the intercooler inlet and outlet.
Would this be just blow-by oil from the cam-covers ?
Seems like a lot would go through if unchecked.
Any ideas ???

 they all do it.....
put a catch can on, or plug the hole in the t/b, and put a small filter of the cam cover....
catch can would be better...

because of the constant higher combustion pressures of a supercharged engine there will always be a slight bit of blow by past the compression rings in an older engine.
