Very common, you should replace the part.

Doing a bit more research and I found this pic.
I guess I'll be replacing this PCV soon - looks like fun trying to access it!

Replaced the crankcase vent this afternoon - DO NOT WANT TO EVER DO IT AGAIN!
Total pain in the arse to do - this video was helpful, but I also removed the knock sensor to help with access.

That's why I said replace instead of clean!
