possibly not.
its probably not oil
it will be a mix of carbon deposit build up and condensation in the exhaust.
it looks like oil. but thinner when it drips out.
keep a eye on the oil level. if it doesnt drop, then it isnt coming out the exhaust.

The same thing happened to my old donar car, it smoked like hell, drank all of it's water and oil, because someone left it with just water in it, and blew it all out of the exhaust. Which was why I bought it cheap, and fitted a XE.
From what he has said, the engine is smoking i.e burning lots of oil, which is also coming out a blow in the exhaust.
What do you think is wrong with it? It's fine.
