Default oil from dump valve?

ive noticed rather a lot of oil coming from the dump valve on my 1990 S2. just wondering if this is common or if anybody has experienced this problem before. its not pissing oil out but has formed a layer of oil over the dump valve and surrounding pipework.

any help would be greatly appreciated

it is probly from the breather system to get rid fo the problem (hopefully) you can get an oil catch tank that takes all the breather hoses and the puts the oil back into the sump rather that chocking up ya inlet!

It is fairly normal tho! take ya intercooler off an see how much is in there! my last one was caked in it!
HTH!
