Question concerned about residue in dynamic chamber

The inside of my dynamic chamber has a pretty thick coating of what I believe is engine oil, especially in the big square section before the runners. The source I believe was from faulty oil injector check valves which allowed boost pressure along with metered oil to run back up (wrong way) to the dynamic chamber. I could be wrong though, but 3 of the check valves on the nozzles were done.

Having replaced all my oil nozzles, I expect this problem will stop, and my compression should improve a bit. I'm concerned about the sludge in my dynamic chamber drying, hardening and making its way into the motor? Make any sense?

Should I be concerned about this?

PCV

I doubt that boost would cause any of that since the boost is moving into the engine not out.


I've seen it on plenty of FCs' intakes too. Most N/a. No boost causing that.....

So I *should not* be concerned about this buildup in my dynamic chamber?

I just fear like a big chunk comming off and mucking the engine/turbo/cat

Grab some 87 octane and let it soak for a day or two and then get a putty knife and wire brushes. Or have it media blasted
