Oil in the Air Filter

Any ideas why? Didn't find anything searching. The filter was pretty soaked. Also had some pools of oil in the two large hoses.

Sounds like your turbos are leaking oil. When I had my stock air box, the filter would get some oil on it. I wouldn't say mine got soaked, though. It's a common thing to a certain degree of leakage, but I don't think you should be seeing as much as you do. Hopefully I'm wrong on this one. But I'm pretty sure that's what it is. Good luck.
