Mitsubishi Carisma DID

    Hi

    I own a 03 Mitsubishi Carisma 1.9 turbo Diesel fitted with F9Q1 Renault engine. I have the car about 6 months and noticed the pipework surrounding flapbox and egr valve on the intake/exhaust manifold were wet with oil.
    I removed plastic and rubber hosing working back towards the intercooler fan and these were also wet with oil residue. The inside of the manifold was also quite dirty with a layer of greasy oily build up. I cleaned this up a while ago but I noticed the oil weep again and I have covered about 5K miles. Car was serviced after I bought it and has passed the nct about 3 weeks ago.
    I have included some pictures to help explain myself.
    Is this normal and what are the possible causes?
    Thanks for any help.
