OK, not one of my best ideas but then again, how would an old fuel filter be causing oil in the air intake system then?  :wink:

The only other places I can think it could be coming from is the turbo oil seals or the breather pipe that cames from the rocker cover into the air intake pipe just to the rear of the air filter. On the latter, if oil vaper from the rocker cover is getting into the air intake then this may accumulate in the intercooler.  :?
Try removing and cleaning the breather filter, bolted onto the drivers side (RHD) of the rocker cover. It's a round black plastic thing with a pipe going into the bottom and another pipe going out of the rear and going round the back of the engine.
