85 camaro

my ex sister-inlaw is giving me the 85 camaro she has (was my brothers) i was looking at it the other day and there is oil blowing up into the air filter. i was told that the #1 piston is gone. but the car still runs. could it just be a bad valve????thinks for any help..

could be a bad piston ring. is it like blowby?

yeah it looks like oil is being poured over the air filter

what the hell!! how much oil is in that thing!!

thats alot of blowby, almost like the rings are non existant. could have piston scoring, but no, a bad valve will not blow oil into your intake.

so can anyone tell me whats going to cost more rebuilding the moter or getting a new one...it has a v6

A rebuild would cost a grand or two I would think depending on how bad the engine is.

might be a long shot but check ur pcv valve, mine was bad and i was getting oil all over my filter, if thats not the case do a compression test

and check you oil level
