ok, if you have a piston in your oil pan you have broken a connecting rod and you need serious help (usual causes are too much power/ stress / rpm than designed for or it is an old engine and it simply wore out but a high idol will def. NOT cause you to throw a rod only if you are running beyond redline in terms of rpm will that cause it and usually if your throwing rods you've hurt something else along the way. because that means you've got a piston bouncing around inside your engine and prob need a new engine or serious rebuild. and if it's through your oil pan you are running with no oil and pretty much are screwed. in conclusion if you are reving beyond redline you are going to hurt something and if you are putting more power in that could cause problems too essentially if you are throwing rods you are making more power or pulling too many rpm for the internals you have. (internals are pistons crankshaft connecting rods in essence).

If indeed you do have excessive blowby it is a major internal engine failure. Again blowby is normal in all engines, but it should never be so excessive as to show smoke in the blow by
