Default 2.1 Zetec Oil Surge

Hi guys, did a small track day at Anglesey on the 17th and didnt go so well, got a problem with oil surge going through the rocket complex on the track.

I'm trying to find a proper baffled sump for it, the only ones I can find are for RWD zetec conversions, any suggestions please.

Engine is a Zetec 2.1 fitted in an Escort RS turbo S2 fwd with a stage 2 bernie Box and a 1.8 Zetec sump with the step in it

A few of my mates have had this problem at knockhill and can be due to the oil breather return being fitted to high up the sump.
