You drilled holes like suggested by ZetaTre, correct? 5 is too many, 3 is correct to get turbo sucking just right amount when filtering.

In my case, before ABC deletes, that was just fine, but increased suction from turbo after deletes, paired with weakened valve spring, caused the valve to close and fumes nowhere to go but through top cap relief valve.

If oil (not just fumes) get sucked into provent somehow, easy way to check is the hose INTO Provent. Normally, the hose would have a thin oily film, but if any oil was passing through, it would be covered in it from inside.

I have an exhaust manifold off a 50K mile x5d laying around in my garage.
Salvage yard where I got the HP turbo was too lazy to separate, so gave me both turbos and exhaust manifold together.
PM me if interested.
