Problem isnt as much the residue but the fact that the oil leaks from the u-tube and makes a mess on the underside of my car.

If the car itself was oily, that is OK, its rustproofing... It is when it drips on my driveway...

Given that Ive "disabled" my EGR, hopefully there is no soot to clog the intake... but soot + oil residue is a recipe for issues...
