oil in the charge air hose..... what's the deal? 850

hey all........ i discovered that there's oil in the charge are hose of my 94 850 turbo. i read somewhere that some oil is normal for a high mileage engine. mine has 194K, so that certainly qualifies as high mileage. anyone out there know anything about this? is it time for a turbo rebuild? the car doesn't smoke at all, under any circumstances. i get full boost when i floor it. it runs like it's brand new, truly amazing. i also read that the oil might be because of worn valve guides....... if anyone knows something pleae let me know. i don't think there should be any oil in the charge air hose at all.........

thanks jason
