Why did you cap it?
PCV system is there to remove fumes from engine and as noted above without it pressure will build up in crankcase forcing oil out somewhere

Re: capped pcv

i had 2 pcvs in my car when i got it and it ended up shooting oil out the dipstick and pushing out both of the valve cover gaskets. make sure you have one pcv and ccv to balnce each other out and you'll be fine
