whitish foam blowing out of breather.
for some reason alot of whitish foam looking junk is blowing out of my breather off my valve cover.. i have a hose connected to it and vents to the ground but it blows pretty much too. is it jst oil or what? rings and all are fine .
Try checking under the valve cover for more mayo. If it's coming out of the vent, then I wonder how much it's already built up in there?
Mine kind of does this. I just run my breather through a catch can and then to the ground. In the end of it there is always a little white foamy junk and it steams or smokes.
When I empty my catch can it looks like water and smells like fuel. I think might be a mix of both..... Fuel and water (actually hydrocarbons I think, a byproduct of combustion) that keep sneaking past my rings!!
If you start overheating or your reservoir starts bubbling, then I would think headgasket.
I am not an expert, bump for better advice and good luck.

Why did you replace the HG in the first place? Also, while you were in there, did you check the head and block surfaces for warping?
