1. youre head gasket is probably blown, hence radiator fluid mixing with oil evaporating "somewhere"
2. you have milky oil, meaning, headgasket is blown, or head is warped
3. youre burning oil, so your oil rings are shot!
Dude.. you need a complete overhaul.
pull the motorand have it machined if the cylinder walls are scraped or have gouges in them.
If it is light, hone it out and buy new oil rings, replace all the gasket while youre at it along with water pump and timing belt

Ok
I do not have cloudyness in oil what so ever..................
My oil stays clear and doesn't even get dirty fast.......( no bad rings )
I do smoke a little oil But only at reverse vacume .....Idle and Winding down....
I know I smoke due to a bad exaust valve seal........
Could Moisture from exaust gasses be slipping through the leaking exaust valve seal the rising up to the top of the Valve cover creating moisture....moisture that never really mixes with the oil...........
I doubt I have a blown headgasket....
There is no evidence of this on my plugs
and My oil is not cloudy..........
? and Ideas or first hand experiences ?
and yes............ the hose that goes from your valve cover to your intake is part of your PCV system.........
It is part of the system that eleminates negitive pressure In your engine....and cycles the air continuouslly.........
