You know the ones I mean, the leaks that keep dripping on the exhaust.
To me it would seem to be better to keep the crankcase pressure at a reasonable level rather than just masking a symptom such as the dipstick popping.

It is not only the PCV valve, but the cam cover breathers that run to the air duct. as I posted here .

Oil in the air duct and right back to the filter element, is a sure sign that the passages in the air duct are restricted.
