Those tubes should be clean inside. If they are coated or dripping oil you have your oil leak. If they have oil in them there is an air leak somewhere in the upper engine. Could be as simple as your dip stick O ring or the Valve cover cap where you add oil. These engines need to be sealed tight or they start sucking oil into the intake.
Glad you guys are having similar luck with a dry engine.
This week it looks like my AC idler pulley is failing and my wife has the car 500 miles away! I hope it makes it home ok.

I'll check again. I replaced the diaphragms about a year ago. Good call on the dip stick o-ring.
Also, it's possible that the bearing that's going bad for you is actually the A/C compressor pulley bearing. I just replaced mine. $15 fix.
