Yes. I've seen the highly entertaining videos of runaway engine self destructions.
If I saw Pools of oil in the Charged Air System I would be alarmed, but a film of oil I would think is normal.
By the way,I had a similar rip in my Intercooler to Inlet Hose which I patched with a Bicycle Tyre Repair Kit and some strong Tape. It lasted till the B.A.S Kit arrived.
On Tombies recommendation I now carry a roll of Self Emulsifying Tape in the Tool Kit.
