That's just a breather. There shouldn't really be oil in there if the pcv is working correctly, but a small amount is probably ok.

Hi,

I used to have that on my turbo cars when I lived in the UK and its normally just a bit of pressure build up in the sump caused by piston blow by or slightly worn rings.

I wouldn't worry unless there is loads of oil coming out threw there.

Just my opinion.

Your PCV valve may be defective. Replace it, that should solve your problem. Sounds like the PCV valve is not closing when it is suppose to, causing excessive crank case ventilation to build inside the tube or hose. The PCV valve is generally installed in a grummet on the valve cover where the tube or hose that you identified runs to. Take note of how the PCV valve is installed. The new one has to go back the same one. One direction only. Hope this helps. Good luck, Tommy.
