Agreed there is a fair bit of oil in there, but I've seen worse on other cars. Oil is probably coming in from somwhere, so you need to consider the potential causes. PCV routes from the valve cover to the oil trap, and then to the intake tract behind the air flow meter. If you pull the hose from the AFM to the turbo and it's oily, you know you have a potential crankcase pressure or oil degredation problem; if it's dry, check the plumbing after the turbo - if that's oily, you probably have oil leakage from the turbo seals.
Bear in mind, some oil residue is not too surprising here. I'd keep an eye on it, but don't panic - could just be build-up.
