Your issue is being caused by a non-functioning pcv.

If you are blowing out the dipstick, you have piston rings leaking compression and you are going to blow out the crank seals also.

You can confirm this with a leak down test.

IF you have recently done new piston rings then that would not be too unusual. It takes a few hundred miles of cruising for the rings to completely seal BUT they need help of a negative pressure in the crankcase to help them seat and stay seated.



In the leak down test, you will actually hear them leaking compression.
