drill a hole on your oil cap and install a 90 degree fitting.

I know you said you dont have milky stuff in your coolant, but do you have any stuff in your coolant reservoir? I had both, and a slight leak in a new coolant seal. Not that your problem is that :-) Just reflecting on my own experiences.

I have seen the same stuff collect since then in my oil, but i dismissed it as remnants of the previous failure.

Go to the 1st gen section, and search for the term "lung mustard".

Test your PCV system.

And if you are constantly making only short trips with this car, that gunk will build up.
