Hey Liquid
It seams that all the lightnings get oil in the intake. If tou look at the rubber intake tube there are 3 tubes that attach to the bottom of the tube. One of them is part of the PCV system and goes to the drivers side valve cover. I beleive the oil come from there.
The way to get rid of it, is to get a breather cap, and a chip programed for it. The breather goes on the oil fill tube.

oil in throttle body
I to have had oil in there, Heck when i went to install my Single Blade it actually RAN OUT!! So i have been monitoring this closely,,, This is what i have done so far,, Got the ford racing breather cap. $18.00 and i took OFF the vent tube from the drivers side valve cover and PLUGGED it. The truck seems to run fine,, have NOT thrown a code, however i Still have taken the boot off and with a very clean rag wiped out around T.B. and top off boot, i hope this cleans up pretty soon! These i.c.'s must be so insulated with oil its amazing they run as good as they do,, Truck is oo jdm electric fan, 52xx miles

Another option would be to remove the driver's side 'straw', replace it with a filter, and cap the TB boot.
drove it without electronic enhancement for some time and no service light illuminated.
all parts cost less than $25.00.

Attached is a pic on my truck. Jim @ JDM can do the reprogam to prevent the lean code. You can also buy the breather from him.
