Oil on air filter

I have an 89 formula 305 tpi just found oil all over my air filter. I checked the PCV and it is sucking air so I don't think it is blocked. The car does need valve seals. What could be causing this? let me know thanks!

All the way in the front corner of the engine bay? (Stock filter location)
