I'm not getting a lot of work done on my car this winter. Its been so mild I keep driving it every time I open up the garage to work on it.

I'm getting oily soot on the outside of my intake runners, clearly burping out from the joiner hoses at the manifold.

Why is it there, and is it something that I need to be concerned about?

It would seem that a leak in one direction would also mean the possibility of a leak in the other direction. a vacuum leak.
