Should I be concerned about the small bit of oil in the driver's side downpipe (from turbo) at the intercooler (bottom) pipe?

Please see photo.
The truck has 26000 miles.
There was no oil on the passenger side intercooler inlet (upper) nor any on the outlet.
Tilting the intercooler did not yield any more oil that what appears on the paper towel, no more than a half-teaspoon if that.
There is an oil separator on the driver's side shown here with what looks like some coking in the bottom.
There is no catch-can on the passenger side.
