If the engine has a condition called "blowby", pressure will build up inside the crankcase and oil will blow out the breather. Blowby is best explained as exhaust gas leaking past the piston rings, into the crankcase. The exhaust gas has to go somewhere so it goes out the breather, and in the process picks up oil vapor and mist.
It's common among engines that have not been properly maintained or engines that have extremely high miles.
Poorly maintained engines build up sludge around the piston ring grooves causing the rings to become trapped. When that happens they can't flex and maintain contact with the cylinder walls and can't give an adequate seal.
If an air filter has not been changed properly or if no air filter has been used the rings can wear excessively and the cylinder walls can become "tapered", meaning that they too have worn. Again, this results in an inadequate seal.
I've had a 350 with 2 miles short of 200,000 with NO blow-by, and seen engines with even more. It's all in the maintenance. The 350 is a workhorse but it must be maintained. (the only reason it didn't make 200,000 miles is some *&*^ ran into me and totaled the truck.)

Why is gear oil blowing out breather hose on my kawasaki 220?
Gear oil blowing out of the breather hose on your Kawasaki 220 could be due to excessive pressure buildup in the gear case, often caused by overheating or overfilling the oil. It could also indicate a failing seal or gasket, allowing air and oil to escape. Additionally, a blocked breather vent can prevent proper venting, leading to oil being forced out under pressure. Checking the oil level, ensuring proper ventilation, and inspecting for leaks or blockages can help resolve the issue.
Why would I smell oil in a passat 2000 when I the car lows down?
If you have a 1.8T, the breather for the crankcase is below the intake manifold. The poor design of the engine causes oil to be sucked up through the breather and sit in the breather assembly then causing it to rot and fail. When you aredriving slow, the vapors from your crankcase waft in through the cabin air intake. you need to purchase a breather T fitting, it is expensive -about 45 dollars from the dealer, and install it. Look below the intake on the drivers side of the engine for the faulty part.
Can a bad PCV valve cause oil consumption?
yes. if the valve is plugged or stuck closed, oil can be sucked into the intake through the pcv breather.
Rebuilt ford 302 with about 600 miles on it Why does it keep blowing out all engine gaskets and blowing oil smoke out the tail pipes when valve cover breather and pcv are ok?
Sounds like your oil drain passages in the motor are blocked up. When the oil is getting pumped up it is unable to drain back down and is blowing out your seals and burning up the oil.
Why does your hemi 5.7 have oil in the air intake?
Crank case breather. The vaccum from the intake sucks air from the crank case to optimize performance. Particlized oil gets suck in. Nothing to be worried about. if you want to get rid of it. Purchase or build a catch can.

Piston ring fault. Common on 1.4 16v Fabia engine code AUB. Note that the combustion gasses will cause blowby on piston blowing excessive oil vapour up the crankcase breather pipe and into air intake system on cars with this. You will see excessively dirty throttle body. Oil consumption will also be excessive.
Why does your 2004 ford F250 super duty sucking up oil into the intake?
your air filter is cologged, since it cannaot get an adequate air supply through the air filter it creats a suction thus sucing oil through the crankcase breather which is located in the intake, after the air filter
