Default Oil in intake duct??? Help please>>>>>

I have an '03 Lightning. While the truck was up on my lift this morning, I noticed that there was oil dripping from my intake duct. I took the intake off and there was oil all in the duct. It looks like the breather tube from the left valve cover is the culprit, but I don't know why. The pcv valve is fairly new and functions properly. I called my local SVT dealer and they ran a bulletin search for me. They found Special Service Message 17655- it directly describes the problem and Ford says it's normal. I don't like it. Anyone had a similar problem? If anyone has any information, please e-mail me at:
turturici@comcast.net
Thanks

Check out this post, pretty nice kit for the money. You could spend a lot more, but this one seems to get the job done....
