    I have determined that the problem I am facing is related to the pcv sucking oil into the intake and not the gaskets. With the supercharger off I put air threw the dipstick with the pcv ports blocked on the lim. It held pressure untill it was great enough to lift the valve covers up against the grommets. So I would say its holding pretty well and the engine vacuum is not pulling it threw any of the lower gaskets.

    Now I have oil freeking everywhere. The lim is full to the point if I tilt the engine it will run down the runners. It even made its way all the way to the front of the intake and started to fill the EGR tube with oil.

    The S/C screws are soaked in oil as well.

    Now I have a new pcv valve in there however there is a plastic tube/sleeve below the valve. It looks ok but Im not sure if it is supposed to have a o-ring on it like the valve itself. I have tried searching everywhere and cannot find anything on this.
