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.
