I had a fresh motor that got a quick carbon build up when I used some valve covers that didn't have good oil baffles. My PCV valve was able to suck in enough oil to create a nice carbon crust in just a few weeks. Just saying its possible. I ended up going the water route to clear out the carbon, and then put on another set of valve covers with good oil baffles. No problems since.
