Intercooler Oil and Sand?

I picked up a double intercooler from KeneWagner here and my mechanic put it in along with a number of other parts I've picked up in the last year. When they changed out the old intercooler for the new the mechanic said, along with oil, that he found something like sand in the intercooler. I haven't taken a look yet but what could it be? I'm not sure how sand would get in there.

Any thoughts anyone?
 
Are you keeping your air filter up to snuff? Sounds like you went through a dust storm or down a dirt road with a bad air filter an sucked up some sand. Not very good for the rotors in the blower.
