Its normal. Get a catch can setup to reduce the blow by. You could clean it with some carb cleaner but it wont make a bit of difference. JMO

If you want run a catch can then seafoam the engine! That should clean it up. But its normal nothing to worry about!

If you are going to clean it use brake cleaner, carb cleaner leaves an oily residue and may discolor the plastic (it did on mine)
