Oil coming out the dipstick 95 12v 184k
I have always had enough oil drip out of the dipstick tube to keep one or two or so of my injector lines (on the pump) wet with oil. Never really amounted to anything when I checked the oil level. Just a week ago or so I noticed a lot more motor oil on the ground ( other than the wonderful power steering leak), looking under the hood I found that around the dipstick tube was now dripping and had totally covered my injector pump, the air intake tube, the inner fender and much more. Monday I added a quart and here Wednesday I had to add 2 quarts ( which put me shy of the topside of safe.
2 things that I'm not sure if they are related or not. Several months ago this scenario started happening. As I shift into either 4th or 5th the truck would rev up an extra 300 or 400 rpm and lose power just shortly edge in to the power resulting in the rpm to return to normal.
And on the top of the injector pump in the rear there is a t-line that goes in to the air control valve ( as the dealership schematics called it) and it is disconnected. This is a brass t that sticks out the to rear or the pump and on line travels to the head similar to my boost gauge inlet, and the other to the waste gate mechanism. In my eyes a vacuum line.
This has been disconnected for sometime time now I have realized as the brass threads the would have screwed in to the pump have been worn down and in one particular place nearly a 1/8 of an inch.
I don't know if either of the latter two are related to the oil spilling or not. I don't know if I'm building up to much pressure in the crank case, or what, but if anyone has any ideas I'd appreciate the help. I don't want o get stranded or destroy the hell of a truck that I have.

The line you suspect is a pressure line to open the turbo wastegate.
Many people disconnect and plug the line to increase boost, no problem.
If the line isn't plugged though it will cause power loss.
The line from the intake to the back of the pump should be connected and leak free or you will lose power.
Most oil leaks out the dipstick are 10¢ to fix, the o-ring under the handle is damaged or missing.

Thanks all, I haven't been driving it until I have a chance to do what has been said, which thankfully is Tomorrow. I will definitely check the blow by tube. I' plug the vacuum line off or replace it, And I've known I needed that o ring for a while it had never spit this much oil though. All appreciated. I 'll see what happens tomorrow and keep ya posted.
So far the blow by tube is clear and problem not solved I just got the vacuum leak plugged we'll see what happens. I had a few people tell me about PCV valve and they mention this could be the culprit. I don't know much about that un less it happens to be the box shaped cover that the blow by comes out of that I am going to take of and see if there is a clog in there. someone who knows more about the pcv, your input would be much appreciated. I have covered a good portion of the engine compartment and seems like nearly a quart every hundred miles is being spit out, enough to even have splatter marks on the rear end. Thanks everybody.
