I hate to be difficult but...

To really answer this a person would have to catch it on filter paper, rinse off the oil with a solvent, dry, and then use a sensitive scale.

I suppose we could use a multiple choice scale: (none) (a little) (a moderate amount) (quite a bit)

If forced to answer, I might say that more than you can easily pinch between a thumb and finger would be cause for concern.
