The best way to address this at this point though (car is out of warranty) is to add an oil/air seperator or 'can' as someone else referred to it here. Unless you find oil in the PCV line though I wouldn't even do that.

From a performance standpoint, it serves no purpose (removing the PCV valve) however, there is a TSB out to address oil being sucked into the intake which has been blamed on detonation.

thanks for the post. i think i actually have one of those filters laying around, cause i was going to use it as a fuel filter on my truck, but instead bought a better fuel filter. it would be super easy to put on, but would it be worth it in the long run??
