The slow oil drainage is typical on a cold engine.
But check the drain holes, run a coat hanger or wire down them to clean
them out.
Also, with a warmed up engine, look and see how much oil remains in the
valve cover a minute after you shut it down. There should be no
significant oil sitting.

Do you have a PCV? Is is sucking oil out of the block?
Dirty oil seperator in the timing cover.
