    I don't think it's abnormal for some oil to come back through. But not a large amount though.

    also that hose is the crankcase ventilation hose, and its a dirty bitch... thats why a lot of people throw on a oil catch can, to put just air into the intake, and then collect the oil that inevitably comes out... during a day of racing u can collect alot i have been told (i dont have this oil catch can setup so i dont nkow how much that is)
