Oil in intake??PCV or two seperate valve cover breather vents

I am getting oil into my motor from the crank case vent line on the passengers side valve cover.
Has or does any one in here use two seperate valve cover vents instead of using the stock pcv set up??
will doing so change any of the motors driving or idling characteristics??

I run a clear fuel filter on my PCV line. Replacement filters are cheap enough. I just got it from the Spectre isle. ANother choice is a catch can design.

Changing the setup to something cooky really won't help. In the end, you still need a line, running through a check valve, that leads from a valve cover to the intake. As long as you have that, and it isn't protected by a baffle or some other means, you will get gunk in your intake.
