Default Quick, easy way to solve STS oil spew prob

I was getting significant oil spewage under boost, both from the dipstick blowing out (pinched hose caused this) and the breather filter blowby. Until I get time to tap the oil pan I did this: I removed the quick disconnect fitting and put the oil return line into the valve cover breather tube that usually goes to the TB (I had to extend the hose a little). Then I hooked the boost switched solenoid side up to the oil filler cap using the quick disconnect. I figured that it would be less likely to pick up oil from that high position. It works great even on higher boost. Just though I'd share...
