    Are you sure your rings are gone. Did you remove pvc system and put breathers inplace of oil filler cap. Your engine might be ok unless you have done a compression/leak down test.

    Bingo.

    I bet the vac line on the TB is still connected, thus pressurizing the crankcase, and the easiest place to push it out is the dipstick tube.

    Don't ask me how I know.
    Gone, but not forgotten!
