Default Is This Normal?

I was inspecting my rear suspension and I noticed traces of oil leakage... wondering if that's normal

The grease/oil in the second picture is there to keep the rubber bushing from squeaking as it moves so no need to worry.

I don't see anything on the strut other than dirt.
