With an in-line pcv installed between the cap on the road draft tube and the carb.
With a breather cap on your oil fill tube.

Do you have the cap back there?

Some pics and info here.

Get a set of valve covers that will allow a PVC and a breather cap install...Block off the draft tube opening. Lifter valley's are bad places to draw crank case pressure from especially on high mileage motors with blow by...

Stock heads? valve cover bolts straight up and down or are the tops closer together

That means you can use newer covers with pcv and breather holes.
That is if you want to go that route.
