You shouldn't be seeing oil on the air filter unless it was a K&N reusable filter, Tacky Oil is used on those. I can't imagine someone spraying tacky oil on a paper filter... but???

A bad AOS will cause oil in the intake cross-over tubes. One of the signs of a bad AOS is smoke at start-up... Have you experienced that?
