The throttle body connection even with check valve.
You were not venting enough.
Depending on that connection and the check valve that hose hose might not have been doing anyone but taking up space.
New way you have it hooked up.
Let me see if this is how you have it connected?
Driver sided to a vented catch can.
Passenger side to the front side of the turbo.
Port on throttle. Body and top of intake capped off.

Okay well update, I vented everything to atmosphere, oil cap breather and both connections at valve cover, and sprayed it all off with brake cleaner. Getting just a couple drops after sitting versus it dropping quite a bit once I stopped. So leaking seems to have stopped significantly, It still looks wet around bellhousing like before just not quite as bad, and front is still leaking slightly. Leaking don't seem to be as bad, before it would leak quite a bit. So question is, have I blown both seals out and need to replace? Seems like I'm on the right track with the crankcase pressure
