Default Oil leak under boost

K ive got this oil leak that only happens when i bag the **** out of my car at high boost. I thought it was my oil pan gasket leaking due to high crank case pressure.
I took it to Honda ANd there are telling my its coming from my pcv box on the back of the engine. Its not alot of oil but when it hits my exhaust it smokes like a bitch. The mech said that im getting blow by but my compression is good. My car is a stock bottem end B18c1 and the head has been completely red done with skunk2 and a hks stopper headgasket. And i do have a greddy catch can. So anyone witha simmilar problem or whats causing this let me know.

Catch is as follows. Hose from valve cover and pcv box teed together into one line and into the catch can. I told honda to replace the o ring behind the box and they said its still doing it. He says im getting to much blow by. But if that were the case it would go into the catch can not all over the back of the engine. I dont trust honda worth a expletive. P.S. My catch has never filled up once

sounds like its building too much crankcase pressure.

i Have done a bunch of searches on catch cans and the way i have it is one of the ways to run it. I mean every turbo engine is gonna have blow by. Honda figures i need to build my bottom end but wouldnt my car be buring oil if it were blown?

semi off topic- would crank case pressure from an shitty breather setup be enough to make oil leak from the oil pan gasket?
