There should be no grease per se, but some amount of oil residue is normal. You will find it in your intercooler pipes and the intercooler too. If it is drippy-wet, then you have a bad seal in the turbo or elsewhere.

whew...ummm
I had pics but the computer crashed and havent had tiume to reload pics of of disk...well...I'm just lazy.
my dad knows the specifics but the top line goes to the oil seperator and connectes to the original line that we cut to size through an adaptor. and hose clamps.
the bottom one just slipped right on the normal spot in the intake(i think) again with hose clamps.
