Oil collected bottom of intake hose

I work over at a Honda dealership and I just had my clubman inspected by my shop foremen and everything checked out except for one small issue which is some oil seeping from a big hose that connects to the bottom of the intake from what I can tell. Would this just be oil blow by? No leaks just a little seepage. can any one confirm this before I send it off to mini for an inspection?

it looks like the pcv line and i could be totally wrong but i know that the pcv line does run into the intake from that general area. if it ist he pcv line that it's just blow by coming out of that line. you can actually plug that intlet with a cap that mini sells and just eliminate that pcv line all together.
