Uh, not normal. Serious? Depends on where the oil is coming from.

Could be as simple as a bad PCV valve. Definitely bears looking into.

Also, you sure it's coming "out" of the T/Bs and not going into the intake tube, then into the T/Bs.

Maybe it's your internal manifold.

It's under the black cover in the center of your intake manifold, and I doubt it.
