This is the way it should be, just be sure it has no milky look,(from water or excess condensation) or smells of diesel fuel, either of these would mean you needed to look things over. I was a mining fleet grease monkey for a number of years, and every time we changed oil in our equipment,(5- 20 gallons each), it looked like you described in 10+ hours.
