White powdery residue in intake track

[chuck koemm]

Im servicing my car for spring and when I opened the intake and disconnected it from the rubber hose between the throttle body and intake it has a white powdery residue in it. White powdery residue in intake track before the throttle body, is this normal ? It also looks like there mite me a little bit of oil or grease in it

I'll get here before Larry does:

Don't worry about it the powder. It is a release agent from the original mold....
