Default oil leak by pcv

I have a 1988 C1500 with a 305 in it after you drive it for awhile oil comes out around the PCV valve I have replaced the PCV. The engine does not smoke at start up or when driving.

Is the pcv tight in the grommet in the valve cover? Or possibly the grommet is cracked. Try replacing the grommet in the valve cover.

Yes I replaced the grommet when I replaced the PCV and also fixed the vacuum leak at the PCV. The amount of oil was less but still there.
