Oil on air filter

Oil on air filter
I have a 2005 rx8 auto. I was changing my coils and I noticed I had oil on my air filter and in the flex hose going to the filter box. What would cause this?

I would go with the catch can. Mine collects a lot of oil vapors and seems to condense them nicely. This keeps them from going through the engine. I run the oil fill, the oil injector vent and the intake lines to the input, and the Air Jet line to the output. Can slowly fills with very thin, very dirty oil. That oil does not go into intake, or into Jet Air.

Just imagine what you are doing here on a high level is placing a can in between that hose that runs from the oil filler neck to the intake.
Easy peasy.
