Air/Oil separator  I'll pick one up today from Newport Beach Porsche and be out cleaning the oil from the exhaust by 4pm.
If anyone ends up with this same issue: stick your hand into the "smoke" coming out the exhaust, then smell it. Oil smoke smells a LOT different than coolant "haze". When the AOS fails, the car will still run "ok".. when the head gasket fails.. the car will run like crap because that one cylinder is not firing. You can also peel back the carpet and see air bubbles being pushed into the water reservoir.
I stick a rubber glove over the oil filler (cap off) to check the AOS and breather system. If it sucks the glove in.. it is AOS.
