Maybe time for a Valve Cover vent system/Catch can?

Running stock PCV System?

do a search on "catch can" and you will see so many people have had oil leakage issue with the endyn can setup. T1 can works so much better!!!!

i ended up using silicone sealant instead of an oil pan gasket.. i grinded all the bumps on the surface flat and use blue silicon. never leaked since.

I had the same problem with my motor, every now and then the gasket would split into and blow oil out. Its from too much crank case pressure, added the valve cover vents and havent had a issue yet so you still may want to look into venting the valve cover just so you dont have pressure problems

im running the stock pcv system with the black box on the back of the block tapped with a 1/2 inch brass fitting running a line to the moroso can, and the endyn nipple next to the oil filter to the moroso can. and a oil return.
im getting a custom made breather box the size of the battery. and im going to relocate the battery. im going to run 4 lines from the breather box to the valve cover and hope it works
