Lippy - you might clean out your catch unit real well and let it go for awhile and check it again. As a result of this thread I pulled mine off of my Mustang this morning and it had 3 - 4 oz of oil in it. It looked pretty clean and couldn't really feel the slight texture of fine grit I remember noticing the first time I cleaned it out. It's been on there for about 13,000 miles now. Maybe it is the filter media to some extent.
It's sort of amazing how much oil goes through that PVC system over time. I think about half of my oil use in my Mustang gets caught in the can. The first one I installed was on my supercharged Lightning PU as people were posting pictures of intercoolers loaded with oil after 20 - 25,000 miles.
