ya, thing with toyota pcv, theres no actual valve, its just open ports, so there's a good chance they'll never get clogged, , ordering rings for my motor right now as well,

if you look through the valve cover ports you will that you can not see the cams, meaning it is baffled underneath to prevent oil from being slung up through the tubes. if those are clogged or blocked in any way you crankcase is not releasing air.

DO NOT DELETE THE PCV SYSTEM ON THIS ENGINE, WILL CAUSE DAMAGE.

dont eliminate the pcv lines on the 7mgte. clean the pcv lines fron the tb on the rear of the 3000 pipe...they are bolted to the 3000 pipe. i had the same problem when i put air filter breathers on the valve covers and elimiated the pcv system. dipstick would push up and blow oil everywhere under high boost. clean the pipes and order a new dipstick from toyota...the part number has superceeded many times and the newest number is the best design plus its new so will seal better anyway. THIS WILL SOLVE YOUR PROBLEM. Ive been there done that. THE PART# IS 15301-42012 AND IT LISTS @ $16.26 FOR THE DIPSTICK
