oil coming out the intake
I noticed a puddle under the car while changing my tires after an autocross. I found the source to be the intake filter. I removed the valve breather from the intake and blocked it off and the filter still gets soaked. This is a well abused 184k accord. It this definatly an internal engine failure? The pcv valve is new and is still connected to the IM.
I thought that the valve seals were normally a cold start smoke problem. She really does run well and doesnt smoke for a car with so many miles.
Are there any tests that can be done to check the seals?

I would check to see if the oil is overfilled or not. Autocrossing can really slosh the oil around and even send it out the breather tube in hard cornering. I would do a compression and leak-down test to see if the rings are shot or not just to be on the safe side.
If it only happens while autoxing, I would try running with the oil 1/2L down and see if that fixes it.
