No flame trap but check the vacuum lines from Y fitting (attached to hose directly above oil separator) to intake.

With oil cap off, you can blow through end of PCV line (disconnect at turbo hose) and there should be little resistance--IE air will come out of oil filler hole.

As for leakage around cap, you could try to replace the oil cap rubber seal. It helped stop the leak on my cap. My opinion is Volvo did a piss-poor job of engineering the oil cap--it should be a screw on cap with an o-ring. My Honda has that setup, has just as much blowby and never leaks.
