Does the block breather still have a flow restriction, like steel wool, in it? If not, try adding one, like jam it full with 2-3" worth of steel wool.

I've experienced this when I tried running a breather hose from the cam area, without restriction. Very embarrassing, leads to spinning in one's own oil...
