I think the odds of this being a head gasket problem are pretty slim.

As noted on your other thread if the PCV valve is plugged up it will cause pressure buildup in the crankcase and could blow by the rings or by the valve seals. Start with a new PCV valve. They are only about 3 dollars and will improve your idle and gas mileage.
