Pipe size/diameter
I followed this guide if this is what you had in mind http://www.twinturbo.net/nissan/300zx/forums/technical/view/1019112/The-ultimate-PCV-reroute-write-up.html I used 15mm core plugs to seal the original rocker cover outlets and a mate made me a couple of joiners to connect the new breather pipes to the PCV valves. The same mate drilled and tapped the rocker covers . HTH

still stuck
If it,s a turbo it could be a leak on the turbo cooling pipe , one of mine sprung a leak , it didn,t leak when running , it was shortly after switching the engine off steam would start rising from near the battery . Just bear in mind there are loads of little water pipes in , under and around the plenum which can spring leaks , the best way to stop those leaking is to do a plenum bypass and eliminate them alltogether .
