I took the egr pipe off anf found oil residue on it. Why would there be oil in the intake ? sounds like the motor pressure must be way to high?

If you have blow buy you can get oil in the intake, a little oil is normal as the PCV and Valve cover breather allow oil vapor into the intake. The oil in the intake is one reason I delete the pipe from the rear valve cover to the intake tube and replace it with a small K&N Filter in the valve cover then cork off the end at the intake tube.
