Isn't there air in the crankcase into which the high pressure oil is forced? When I turn on my shower I get a fog on all the adjacent surfaces. Air has picked up the liquid.

Wouldn't that oil spray lead to a heavier mist which would then have to be removed by the AOS as the air in the crankcase is forced through the AOS into the intake to make room for cylinder blowby?

Wouldn't the ball bearings and the relatively large gaps between them allow more flow through into the crankcase above the level of the oil than solid bearings as in "the solution"?
