Running a vented oil filler cap and it's not plugged. All of the PCV stuff 
appears to be clear and the engine speeds up when the oil filler cap is 
removed.

Engine has Pierce roller rockers and stock pushrods. Oil does puddle a 
little at idle and comes up to the bottom coil on the valve springs. Takes 
about 30 seconds for it to drain back down when engine is shut off.

Rockers and shaft have about 3K miles on them. I don't remember the ratio 
right off hand but they are not considered "high" lift but they are higher 
than stock.

Valve clearances are set about .002 on the loose side.
