Default Pressure in the head

Just noticed that my 3i is chucking oil out of the filler cap, it has develped a missfire and I had topped the oil up and it threw it back out of the oild filler cap!

Sounds like bottom end pressure??

As above, give all the breathers a good clean. If they are ok sounds like it could be the rings knackered!
