You are looking at the timing chain cover. The block is cast iron, the head is aluminum. Check for crankcase pressure. PVC check valve backwards or defective.
I can see porous aluminum, one definition of aluminum castings is a bunch of bubbles connected with metal ;)
I don't buy into the acid theory.
