Default B16A head gasket??

Ok i have a 93 civic ex with a JDM B16A motor with a JRSC (jackson racing supercharger) on it an when i start my car it runs fine but the hose that goes from the valve cover to the intake has alot of pressure coming from it an it is blowing out some staem/oily substance. When i hook the hose to the intake it kills my car out an then it wont start until i take the hose out of the intake.

So my ? is could this be due to a bad head gasket??

(the kid whom i bought this car from just had a new Cometic gasket an ARP head studs put on it before i purchased it)

Could be rings as well. That's what mine did when I blew up the motor the last time around.
