I drive a 2004 GU ST Patrol 3 LITRE. Have a black oily film in one corner of my inter-cooler some have said it may have a small split in the corner allowing a fine spray of oil out.
also loosing radiator coolant slowly some where.

Nah all good, You can remove the IC and clean it out with petrol etc,
Also check for leaks while out, just be sure completely dry, use hair dryer
before re assembly

I drive an 04 just under 200K on the clock, might need to one NAD your ride and look at welded
intercoolers
