Default Oil Breather Stem Bubbling Out OIL

Hey guys,

I have an oil breather stem, with the filter on top.
After the car has been running for a little, and it gets warm, the breather starts to smoke a little. If you look at the very bottom of the filter you can see little bubbles coming up, but nothing thats spilling over.

My friend touched it and smelled it, told me it was oil. The smoke looks kinda whitish/gray. It's not horrible smoke but you can just see it.

Am I burning oil somewhere or what? Hope it's nothing serious

Mine did that till it finally spilled over. It ended up being a breather being clogged on the transmission. The breather is on the top side of the tranny.
