Paul, many of the 8V92's in other motorcoaches just had slobber tubes dumping into the air stream under the engine. Newell ran the slobber tubes into the canister you are referencing for collection. Sounds like the petcock has been left open or worked its way open on your coach. If the petcock is left open, the effect is the same as having open slobber tubes. Verify if the petcock is open and if so, close it. If it is closed but still leaking, open it part way, then tighten the nut above the petcock.

When the motorhome has been run and warmed up, the canister should be drained into a small bucket or drip pan. The petcock on the bottom should then be closed. Depending on the mileage and amount of blowby oil you are getting, draining the canister every 6 to 12 months should be adequate.
