"PCV" SYSTEM IN 93' 300E 3.2L

My 300e has developed multiple oil leaks. Is there something that could be stopped up in the system? I remember the old PCV valves would stop up and force oil out in any weak spots. Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks.

that 300E 3.2 has the old inline 6 engine - which has an inherent leak spot at the headgasket front and rear edges.

The 99 E320 has the V6 which does not have any such leak issues.

if you have a purge valve not working it can cause gaskets to blow,I just read up on this,you can clean the valve with MAF cleaner
