So the real problem is you need a bigger cam.

5003  = Photo of left side ----- same type breather on right side
 
These breathers are the push in type -- grommet was a plug, so bottom had to be removed. I left as much of sides as I could ------ I had just grommet inserted into right cover and oil was present at grommet bottom edge/lip -- if I stuck the PCV valve into that big grommet opening with it's hose to manifold installed -- it would suck oil. The manifold vacuum at 3000 rpm it 20.

Yea!  I Win!

Actually, I'm glad you found that out, though I too am curious why it  
would be sucking so much oil.  Could it be because there was no filter  
restriction on the air going -in- the other valve cover?  Interesting  
thought that it might be getting oil shot up to it from the rockers.    
  Probably why the fancy cast covers have the baffles.

I also am guessing this new engine has more vacuum.  Let us know what  
it reads when you put a gauge on it.
