a little oil is considered normal.

I have a hard line that goes to the turbo that has a little bit of oil around it. But not anywhere near the intercooler.

i think an oil catch can would help.

Right on top of the turbo where the the pipe is clamped on to it going to the intercooler is all right to have oil there

i think so. least it sounds that way. here's a little description about what an oil catch tank does.

GReddy Oil Catch Tanks collect the oil, moisture and blow-by gas that causes carbon and sludge build-up in the intake system and engine to keep them clean even under the hardest driving conditions. An oil catch tank is also an excellent engine dress up item that will give your car a racing image

so i assume it's normal to have some junk in the intake tract.
