Why does it look at dirty and oily inside the throtle body and into the intake manifold when you take off the elbow?
On higher milage cars I mean.

Happens to any car ever made with a PCV system.
The system vents the extra pressure from the crankcase into your throttle body. The vent line has baffles in it to keep oil out, but they don't catch 100% of it, so a film of oil that got through the lines builds up inside.
