Default 2005 V50 2.0D - Oily air filter

Hi all,

The car in question is a 2005 V50 2000cc Diesel.
I've decided to change my air filter recently, and it turned out to be a bit oily(not soaked). The last time I've changed it was an year and a half ago and it was OK. Also, there's a bit of oil leak underneath the body throttle before the inlet manifold, which tells me that theres a bit of oil in the manifold too. The car starts a bit rough, and smokes a bit for a minute, after that everything is fine.
I've read on the internetz, that it could be a fault with the PCV valve, but nothing particular for the v50 2.0d one.
Has someone had an issue like this? Other possible faults? Any ideas for diagnosing the problem? Option for a PCV delete?

Thanks in advance!
Cheers!
