The situation you describe occurs when you don't have the breather  
ports in the heads AND you don't have the IAD suction applied to the  
breather. In this situation, you will get pressure buildup in the 
case  from accumulated blowby. A pressurized case will cause oil to 
get blown  out of the unsealed rear crank hole.

I'm assuming that he has the  intake portion of his '72 system intact. 
If I'm wrong about that, then  this changes everything.
 
Or, IF he used the earlier style breather box with the single plastic  
plug.
