Default oil blow by

anybody know where is the cdr located on the LLY? I think I have excessive blow by. There is oil on the underside of the egr valve, appears to be leaking out of where the egr is bolted on. Thanks

PCV I guess its called. Anyway where the heck is it? I have looked everywhere on this fantastic site and from what I have learned the excessive blow by which is causing oil out of the EGR down on to the Intake manifold could be coming from one of 2 places, a stuck or bad PCV or bad turbo seals. I would like to check the PCV first to see if thats it cuz the turbo looks like its hard to get to.
And NO I do not want to do an egr delete or reroute anything. I need to keep it absolutely stock for now. Please help!
Thanks

There's a plastic tube that connects to the air intake from your turbo commonly called the turbo mouth piece or MP. The PCV hose is plugged into it on the right side as you look at it. You can trace it back from that T, to where it comes out of the heads. Hope it's an easy fix when you figure out what it is.
