Default Air inlet manifold

I'm removing the inlet manifold to check carbon and replace oil filter seals ,and I've noticed the inside of the inlet manifold has an oily ness about it ,is this normal or do i have a problem with the oil separator ,(84k miles ) the flaps look ok to me but I would like to operate them to be sure when I get it on the bench ,is it possible to do this without damaging them ? ,ps should i clean inside with a degreaser and hot water or better to leave it alone
