Thumbs down 85 300D: Engine oil in ignition lock housing??!!!

So my ignition lock failed, and in the process of taking it out of the car and then apart, I found engine oil in the main ignition housing behind the electrical ignition switch when I removed it from the housing. It's right near where the vacuum lines attach. Not alot, but enough to pool.

Any ideas for where this came from and how I should remedy? There also seems to be a fuel leak around the fuel filter -- just dirty everywhere. Dont know if it's related. Something is not right and I would like to correct it while I have the instrument panel off, etc.

Thanks.
