There was about 30mm of oil in the air filter box

I haven't been on for a while, and I've just noticed this thread. I had the same thing, oil backed right up to the airbox, after a 600 mile thrash to Scarborough and back. It must be the constant high revs, because in normal day-to-day running, I only see a small amount collecting.
Maybe there's another way to vent the crankcases? Couldn't the breather go straight up from the engine, and maybe run back in again, so there was no oil loss? Or how about directing the pipe into a Scottoiler?! ...Waste not, want not!
