Happens all the time. I've replaced lots of evaporators. It's always nice when you have the smoking gun of bright neon yellow UV dyed oil is dripping out of the condensate drain under the car.

Eh, it's possible. I've seen a few evaporators fail in that manner. They leak just enough to get the oil smell through the vents when running the a/c, but slow enough that the a/c works at least through a season.
