If you clean up the area and it continues to leak a lot, the problem is not the intercooler. The oil has to be getting into the intake air. Two possibilities are;
Oil fumes condensing from crankase blowby. And, secondly, turbo seal leak on intake side.
If you remove the oil cap while running are lots of fumes coming out?
