This is the pipe that's coneccted from the top of the engine to the filter.
PCV valve maybe?
Oil on the outside is not bad as long as there is still oil on the inside.

It's engine blowby, oil mist from the valve cover is travelling through the vent tube and into the intake post filter/pre turbo. Installing a catch can may solve the issue, or you can pull the valve cover off and bend the tab over the vent hole closed some more ensuring that only the air is travelling through the vent tube and no spray from the valvetrain is making its way in there. I've read that a 10mm gap on the valvecover tab is adequate for this, so it's not closed off too much to restrict air flow.
