So im hoping to get some of the DSM gurus to chime in on this...Now my car has bad valve seals no doubt about it ...also has the infamous boost leak from valve cover my question is which im fairly sure i kno the answer to is...Can Bad Valve Seals Be The Source Of Boost Leak From Valve Cover??? Compression test came back good so its not my rings pcv is good only issue im sure of is valve seals...
 
Just make sure the crankcase pressure from the valve cover is recirculated back to the intake and it shouldnt be much of a problem besides alittle smoke on start ups.

Edit: also running a check valve between the know faulty pcv valves and intake manifold will help control crankcase pressure.
