Since the CCV is located outside of the engine, taking it for a long drive has very little effect once the problem begins. The heat from the engine to burn off any mayo in the CCV will not occur because the CCV is located away from the engine.
On my PORSCHE I see mayo forming in the oil tank but it has a standard PVC system and I know of no incidences on any of the PORSCHE forums where any members have hydrolock their engines due to mayo. Later PORSCHE have adopted a similar CCV system and there are postings of problem with the system.
Mayo is formed when water vapor mixes with the oil. Water vapor will always be a problem since it is part of the combustion process. Sludge is similar to mayo and Toyota has address this issue in their cars by advising the owners to do more frequent oil changes.
