Hi,

This seems like you confirmed what you issue is which is good however, I would not delay to long in getting it repaired. Basically the PCV system either vents the combustion chamber gases in the engine to the atmosphere or on newer vehicles, it routes them back into the engine to be reused.

If these are not being vented then they are staying inside the vehicle. This will cause higher pressure on the inside of the engine and those gases are staying inside.

Basically, if you go too long, then the pressure will cause an oil leak as it will blow out the seals. I would not recommend it.

I would just make sure you fix them ASAP and drive as little as possible.
