Oily residue in clean side of air filter. Normal?
I have some sort of oily residue on what should be the clean side of the filter in the duct that takes the air toward the engine. It seems to start where the smaller bore hose joins this duct, but I never checked where that one comes from, I assume it’s some sort of breather or recirc. It’s a 2013 Puma. The pic isn’t great, but should give you an idea.

Is it anything to worry about or perfectly normal, or both in true Landy fashion!

perfectly normal, if you search "provent" you will find a thread on here all about it DEFENDER 90 TDCI XS,

I hope everyone is well and your land rovers make you happy

Cheers. Is a catch can the solution, or not necessary?
