If you pressurized the crankcase its possible that you inhibited oil drain back.

I just installed an RJC pcv and gained this leak. I hope its just a faulty valve. It only leaks under boost and its draining down the housing. Hope I remedy my issue going Back to my old pcv setup.

Your old PCV won't matter. There's no positive flow when there's boost.

So if my pcv is allowing boost to bleed by the back pressure wouldn't cause the blow by?
