Its just the rubber seal on the joint of the boost pipe, you could replace the pipe if you want to, cant get the seals on there own.......

Sorry for hijacking this thread is it normal for oil misting not oil dripping at the intercooler hose joints or dose it mean something more sinister ie turbo issues or breather issues.
thanks
