So I have a PCV set up on my 292.  The PCV valve is on the rear of the valley pan and feeds back into the intake.  The fresh air goes from the air cleaner base to the oil fill cap but it is the open element type with perforations under it and a hose connector. 

I am getting oil up under my hood near the hinge from it.  Should I have a closed cap with just the hose attachment.  

Should the other valve cover be vented some how?  They are the finned Spotlite Customs finned covers.

What did I done do wrong?

Thanks.
