Bryan,
The one way check valve could certainly result in pos. crank case pressures and oil saturation around the dipstick would be a symptom.
If the problem is compounded wherein engine exhaust is clearly exiting the dipstick tube when engine is running (and dipstick removed), the problem could be piston ring seating related. Many of the engines may have only one piston ring not seating and may still make compression through a second compression ring seating. About 2-4 Tbs of oil is required through the spark plug hole and then reinstall all 4 spark plugs (or old retired set of plugs). Remove fuel pump fuse and disconnect ign. ampl. connector and crank engine in intervals of 10 seconds x 5-6 which will almost always unseat a bound piston ring.
Best of luck,
GaryK at SWEDISH DYNAMICS,INC.
