Default Oily MM hose!
Checked MM hose, no holes and its on tight, but when i took it off there is alot of oil in the hose. I dont just mean a film of it, like i held it upright and it dripped out. I know there is gonna be some in there, I had it on my GTI when i changed to a FMIC. Should i be concerned?

Default hmmm could be a sign of turbo rebuild soon...
oil leaking past the turbo's shaft bearing would cause oil out the exhaust pipe if I'm not mistaken.

Default ok, the exhaust worries me that your turbo bushings are worn.
the only time my car saw oil out the tailpipe, in liquid form, was when my turbo puked out on me and then it was well, pouring out....found where my exhaust leaks were though.
