Default Zetec 2.0 Oil burning/breather leaking

Since fitting the 2.0 to our Fiesta, we've been monitoring the oil consumption. The engine was allegedly rebuilt 8k ago, it pulls like a train but for some reason oil is leaking quite drastically from the cam cover oil breather pipe. I've swapped the rocker cover to a blacktop style and it's still the same. It's coupled with a gurgling type sound. As a result of the leak, the engine bay was getting soaked in oil. Any ideas what could be causing this?
