Go give it a good blow out mate and see if that clears it- has your car previously had a head gasket failure with the same breather setup and pipes?
could be a case of clearing it all out- you'll want to do another oil change aswell if thats the case.

take it for a run if you can, or leave it idling for an hour.
if it doesn't clear up, i'd be thinking there would be a ring problem.
