I am pretty Sure it is your PCV alowing the oil to pass by

It sounds like the PCV valve like stated above. Also check the oil dipstick and radiator to see if there's any AF in the oil or oil in the AF. If it is then it's pointing towards a blown head gasket. When was the last time you changed the oil in it, and did you put the right amount of oil back in? If you put to much oil back in then it's possible that there's to much oil pressure causing it to blow out.

This is caused by oil blow-by from CCV system.

There are two things to do:
This is usually caused when the front CCV tube develops a crack or becomes plugged OR
When the valve cover becomes filled with sludge.

I would check on the skinny tube coming from the back of the valve cover to the intake manifold. Make sure there are no cracks or that it is blocked. Advanced carries the grommet, the vaccuum tube along with the vaccuum assembly that connects to the front of the valve cover.

In my experience, when I have pulled the skinny tube from the intake manifold at looked at the fitting, it would be clogged. I use a pipe cleaner or small allen wrench to clean the fitting and then the problem goes away until it clogs again.
