    is this bad?

    As stated in my previous thread, I don't know too much about these cars... BUT, I don't think this should be happening; there's motor oil in the intake boot and the sensor on the boot side. pourque, Gods of R3V?

    That is quite normal for an M20 engine with appreciable wear on it. Part of the oil comes from increased blowby as the rings wear and part from leakage past the valve seals.
    The car makes it possible, but the driver makes it happen.

        If the rest of the engine and car is in good shape, yes.
