I was privileged enough to get some insight from a Benz mechanic who had worked on these old diesels since the 70s. He taught me a lot in my 20s when I was a young tech. He had a trick of running straight high grade non hydrated veggie oil through the fuel system bypassing the tank and would run the car for an hour or so at a time, change the oil, make sure the valves were adjusted correctly and do some hard driving and the blowby would come back virtually non existent.
