Oil in intake manifold?

I took off the throttle body to clean the butterfly thing underneathe and noticed that there was oil inside the intake manifold. Pulled spark plugs to check for wetness/fouling, but they are all clean and dry as a bone. Valve stem seals were done 8/28/2011 and valve cover gasket was done about a month ago.

Fairly normal, probably from the crankcase ventilation.
