Problem with 2.2L LT... Question

Anybody else have problems with blow back? I have a fairly Stock 2.2L LT and am having issues with it blowing back.

I have a CAI on it and a muffler, not a full cat back. I popped the hood at lunch today and their is oil stains on the valve cover where it looks as is oil has seeped out slowly over time. I only have 32,000 miles on the motor and I don't really beat on the car.

I'm gunna buy a new stock intake tube and take it back...

Any thoughts?

So i have lots of carbon build up on the driver side and there is a small bit of oil on the back passenger side of the valve cover. There is also just a trace of oil on the intake pipe from the hose running off the valve cover.

I am thinking it's a PCV valve issue, but was hoping for others inputs...
