You Should Not be getting oil leaking ANYWHERE in the carb(urettor) /fuel feed system
1: If by carb mount U mean the manifold/head joint then a: Possible Head crack b: Leak may be from bad tappet cover gasket c: Major Valve/Head problems ( engine will run rough if at all) 2: If U mean the rubber mount under the carb itself then: Most likely cause is an unusually high condensation of oil blown up the breather pipe into the air filter enclosure which is dribbling down the side of the carb. This is fairly common in worn engines (worn compression rings at least) Otherwise provide more detail (try to pinpoint exactly where the oil is coming from, is Air filter housing oiling up inside, Car Running rough, poor starting even after tune up, etc) or Get a Professional Opinion Either way closer examination is required, it sounds like U're in 4 a minimum of an engine split (head off at least) Good Luck
The above refers to Golf/Jetta Mk 1 models. I have no idea if the carb layout is similar in any of the higher Marks.
If what you mean is oil in the carb, then maybe you have a PVC valve problem. When the PVC valve gets plugged, oil from your exhaust backs up into the air filter, then gets drawn into the carb. Check to see if this is the case. A PVC valve and a filter is a lot easier to handle for repairs than a block or head gasket. Good luck.
