Check the Michelin Man hose and see if there is an accumulation of oil in it.
I have seen several 2Cs / 5ks do the same thing with apparently healthy
engines but after the hoses were cleaned the problem when away - for a while.
I make a point to clean the hoses at every oil change - it seems all turbos
weep a little oil and the ribs in the MM hose are a natural reservoir.
Regular cleaning also extends the life of the hose.
That has been my experience but other opinions are certainly welcome.
