OMG there's oil everywhere.
So after fixing what i thought was the issue with a boost line running into the crankcase i've experienced the same problem. I was driving on the highway doing a normal pull when all of a sudden i felt a hesitation followed by smoke and the smell of oil instantly. I pulled over and immediately shut the car off and popped the hood. The dipstick was blown out and oil was EVERYWHERE and i really mean all over the entire engine bay. At this point i figured i was completely out of oil but the dipstick still read it had oil. I drove it home, parked it, and cleaned up a bit. Now it's been blowing blue smoke and burning oil but im thinking this has to be a PCV problem? Could it be something else im missing?

Danger to manifold!
Maybe try figuring out what happened before you put in a new motor?

I totally missed that post, my mistake. Ive stopped driving the car altogether and am going to do a compression test this weekend hopefully. I didnt know about getting a specific valve for turbo applications but would have had I seen it. Again my apologies and ive already had a few people tell me my rings are shot.
