Weird oil leakage????????
 
My buddy has an 88 formula 350 tune port the car starts and idles good but when driven oil squirts out of the dipstick tube some kind of pressure must be building in the crankcase?? Any knowledge or comments on this would be greatly appreciated.

i have seen a few motors witha china chrome dip stick and it was made so badly that the tube was the direct cause-- but the pvc valve is the correct place to start that has to work first as was stated above -- jz

If the pcv system is intact and functioning properly, there is probably pressure in the crankcase caused by excessive blowby. We all know what that means........ENGINE TIME!!!!
