The left side had a lot of spoog that drained out all over the floor but the right side was very clean.

Is this a normal thing or do I have some sort of blockage in the drain tube?

Cheers!
I would check the fitting that threads into the LHS power valve cover. Pull this and give it a good cleaning. Replace the hose that connects to the fitting as well. You will likely always have some unburnt oil in the LHS cover, but it should be draining out the drain hose and not accumulating in the cover.
