PCV and vac. lines, where does it go?????

Jim-

I have no stickers under the hood from thefactory. This car was a drag car. It was missing a engine, tranny, and almost EVEYTHING else when I bought it.

ok. here we go

I'm not using any smog pump or cannister purge and my PCV is letting oil into the intake manifold when I hit the gas. I thought it was brake fluid from the master cylinder but it's engine oil. Now I have another problem.

To solve it, why can't I run the PCV vac. line into the oil spout on the pass valve cover and run the TB vac. that was in the spout into the intake?? That way when it leaks, the oil doesn't go into the manifold and goes back into the engine. I'm really confused and need to get this right.

I had the PCV line going into the neck of the upper manifold (the Edelbrock RPM upper has vac. holes drilled on the neck). I still have the vac. line going from the underside of the plenum to the vac. tree, and the line going from the intake to the FPR. But I need help figuring this PCVsystem out. I'm getting confused b/c I don't have all the OE smog crap on the car.
