Default LS9 in 57 Chevy Pushing Oil Through PCV...Need Help ASAP!!!!

I have a buddy that has put a ls9 in a 57 chevy and he has to leave with it tomorrow for Columbus Good Guys. He says it is pushing oil through the pcv and filled the intake up. Said the first thing he did was check all his lines and the are correct for the oil tank, etc. The motor is brand new, Any ideas???? Any help would be appreciated!!!!!

Is he pulling the PCV air from the valley cover or the valve covers? Does the LS9 have the same catch can provision as the LSA? If not then an aftermarket catch can would be beneficial, but how much oil are we talking about?

Hell, I am not sure. This was a crate motor so it came with the oil tank and all of that. He put a ls7 which had the same tank etc in a car he built for a guy last year and didn't have a minutes trouble. I tried to call him a while ago and see if they had figured anything out but they must have said to hell with it and went to bed. They have been working on about 2 or 3 hours of sleep or not at all for the last week and a half. I will chime in on the fix, maybe a catch can will work at least to get it to Columbus.
