Default oil
leaking oil and my oil was above the full mark and smelled heavily of gas. Just replaced the PCV about 8 months ago and car has been running rich, do I have a blown head gasket?

TIA

I just replaced them, but I did do that after my last oil change. I will keep an eye on the oil though.
