The oil splatter on the oil filter seems to be a separate (common) issue. I assume your oil separator is within the air filter housing like my 300D? At the suggestion of Brandon314159, see post # 16:

617 oily air filter

I took mine apart, cleaned it, and sealed the joints with silicone "glue." It seems to have reduced the amount of oil splatter on my filter considerably. Give it a try.
