Default Splooging oil?

Alrighty, why does oil come out of the breather filter on the valve cover?

You know, the one that is saposed to connect to the pipe right before the inlet-side of the turbo.

Did I add too much oil and this is it's way of getting rid of it?
How do I stop it?

There is pressure getting into the crankcase somehow. Just like brain said, those are the two ways for that to occur.

Put the vacuum line back in. That worked for me. I am not using the U pipe and tapped the AFM. Not a drop of oil since...

When I did my custom IC piping, I thought it would be easier to just put a filter on there instead of plumbing a hose barb. It didn't work like I thought it would and you need to run a vac line to the intake.
