Default Help.. Question about oil in the intake...

My AMW Catch Can should arrive tomorrow..

However.. I did the ghetto fuel filter mod, and the filters have caught alot of oil. So I know that they're working. But my intake is still getting oil inside it..

On the passenger side valve cover at the very front there is a hose running from there to the top of the throttle body. Could this cause the intake to continue sucking in oil?

In this picture.. you can see the hose going into the top of the throttle body. Right now my filters are inline with the connection that goes into the passenger side of the intake manifold.

Does the hose going into the top of the throttle body allow oil to be sucked into the intake?

I hope this cleared it up..
