That was my first hope, but the lines and box on the oil pan are dry.

The PCV was a bit clogged when I got it. The PTC was completely clogged, and someone had it off once. I still get zero vacuum at the oil cap, but at least it is not blowing up the glove anymore.

I am assuming that the oil is coming from the top of the engine, due to spillage. I will monitor it again next month. It sure is hard to wipe things off when you can't see what you are doing.
