the breather in crankcase system is to get rid of blow by gases in the crankcase before it pressures up and mixes with oil causing sludge mixture., not to control oil pressure thats done by the pump and when that get to high the oil pressure release valve sorts that issue out .
and your right about about the bucket it just a pity we are on about a engine, and apart from the fact a open top bucket doesnt have 65 to 70 psi of pressure in it like a oil system lol.
all iam saying is thats what happened to me and it was solved in sec by harvey , it just makes sense to have it dripping in to the oil to me .
