    If the exhaust pipe outlet is black and oily is this an indication of
    valve seals or some oil getting into the engine ? What could it be ?
    My car has 75K miles on it but that exhuast tip is driving me nuts.
    What symptoms or signs would my Acura Integra eb showing to reflect
    this at all. Thanks for any insight anyone maybe able to provide on
    this.

    Does the oil level ever drop?

    Compare with other cars. All the cars with modern emission controls have a
    sooty tailpipe - if your last trip was short, it'll also be wet. The old
    mechanics' quick diagnostic tricks, like reading spark plugs just don't
    apply any more.
