Why would a feeler gauge be pre-packaged in oil?

Keep it from rusting.

It keeps all the thin pieces or "feelers" from getting stuck together and rusting. It is a preservative while it is being manufactured, shipped, and waiting on the store shelf.

Yes, its normal. It keeps the seperate tabs lubricated and prevents them from getting rusty.
