Default blowby or valve stem seals?
my truck has 190k on it and it burns oil out the timing cover breather tube bad enough to watch it haze. i think it might be blowby but ive heard it could be valve stem seals?

thats what i thought cause if it was valve stem seals then it would just burn oil and not haze out of the puke tube right?
