Bad PCV valve? I belive that enters right into the intake. I think there is another breather off the back side of the valve cover that enters into the stock intake tube.

Here is the best pic I could find online. My car is at my dads right now.


Circled in green is the PCV valve. If you've never replaced it, it may need it. Ever hear a whistling? Do you have oil in the throttle body at all? Clean it out with throttle body cleaner and the car running. Rev the engine a little and spray the cleaner into the bypass just over the throttle plate. You will probably get quite a bit of black crap come out. Clean out the throttle body the best you can too. If you need more pics let me know.

Hope this helps and good luck.
