Oil spraying out of dipstick a small amount but enough to coat the steering shaft and side of the strut tower, I was getting condensation in my oil and on the dipstick so I installed a PCV valve(between the tube by the oil fill neck and carb.) and a breather on the drivers side V.C. last weekend. Replaced the head gaskets, timing chain and a bunch of other stuff (susp, steering, exhaust.) Removed the pcv valve today after seeing the leak and put a hose on the tube thats on the filler neck and ran it out under the engine. before last weekend all I had for crankcase venting was the one hose from the tube on filler neck and I was getting condensation but no oil leak so now I will see what happens with the venting on both sides. If any body out there can give me any ideas or explanations they would be greatly appreciated.

Are you sure the head gasket didn't get pinched? Sounds like either a blown head gasket or a bad ring allowing blow by? This is serious redneck mechanics but the circles guys do it/ Zip tie a sock around it or the breather and it will keep you from making a mess. or you could go with with weld on crankcase evacuation like the drag guys, a whole system is only like $40 or so, that would burn it in the exhaust.
