If you are getting oil fumes look for oil leaks that can drip on the hot exhaust system. Such as valve cover gaskets leaking on the center exhaust ports of the heads, front areas of the intake manifold running down the side of the engine and dripping on exhaust parts, oil light switch leaks, and front seal or timing cover leaks that drip on the cross over pipe if you have one. Check to see how tired your engine is by checking the compression on all the cylinders, should be at least 130# on average. If you have low compression you may have blow by into the crankcase which may exceed the pvc's ability to handle it and thus blow fumes into the engine compartment and may enter the heater/vent system.
