Without being familiar with your specific model of car, I'd venture to say that if I was seeing a lot of oil in the air filter housing I'd look for overfilled crankcase oil sump, or excessive blowby from a badly worn engine, or excessive restriction in the air intake (causing a meaningful amount of vacuum on what should be the atmosphere side of the throttle body).
