He's asking does it look oily? Does it not feel like rubber? Oil would saturate that filter (all black) where that still is clean in certain places.

I was mostly wondering what the substance was on the filter and what the air intake tube looked like as far as being dirty also. Disregard where I asked if that was the throttle body side....I was confused for minute about the intake setup with the PCV and all that good stuff.

Air intake tube tube is clean. There is quite a bit of oily dirt residue around the rubber grommet where it enters the valve cover.
