Source of oil is the valve cover, drawn by vacuum into the air filter via the large connecting hose. Very common. If it's been a while since the filter was changed, that accounts for the considerable amount of oil in the filter housing. Once the filter becomes clogged, the engine begins drawing air from wherever it can, including itself, from places such as the valve cover, inside of which is a lot of oil being tossed about.
