Default Blowing out oil?

The other night I did a fourth gear pull up this highway and filled the cabin with smoke when I hit 7k. I thought it was probably the turbo but I can't find any oil blowing out of the turbo anywhere and doesn't have any shaft play really. I have I little leak from my ruturn line on my pan but nothing to make that kind of smoke. What I did find was oil on my manifold and block from my dips tick tube. My dsm had problems blowing out the dipstick. Has anyone had any problems like this?

Yeah that's exactly what it was. All the rubber was worn off my dipstick and I ended up just stealing a spare dsm dipstick and making it work. After something was covering the tube I couldn't smell any oil at all anymore after driving. As soon as I can get to the store I'll get my catch can all plumed up but right now it's just vented to air

Well the catch can itself may not help with the issue, as it just stores the oil/vapors/blowby. You may need additional venting

I am running 2x 10an off my valvecover
