How is oil getting here?

[pullNpray]

My intercooler boots are filthy inside and out. The tube from the intake horn to the intercooler has oil standing in it. Why? The truck uses less than a qt. of oil in 5k miles, I run mobil 1 5-40 Turbo Diesel Truck oil, oil stays damn clean between 5k miles changes, really no blowby, new air filter every 15k miles I dont reuse them so too much oil on the filter is not it, turbo shaft is kinda sloppy but not too bad..... 202k miles.
