BSH OCC = Winning
Had the OCC installed for one month and just checked the dipstick that indicated about 1/3 full!
Using a hypodermic syringe and 5/16 tubing I drew about 6 oz of liquid resembling a Starbucks Cafe Latte.....after ONE MONTH.
To think that was going in the turbo makes me sick....

Understand about the condensation...it's been in the 60's with rain during the last two days. Since the consistency is not really oil but does smell oily, it's not like all what I removed was oil...in fact the oil level is perfect.
But whether its oil or some other liquid, it goes to the turbo and still makes me sick!
Just really happy with the BSH OCC and PCV Block.

Car info: 2009 R55 JCW
Current Date: 11/16/2012
Current Mileage: 13913 miles
Miles since Last Emptied: 3356 miles
Notes:
- summer driving produced very little water condensation, but provided approximately the same amount of oil residue.
- This time, the oil has a distinct gasoline smell, however is not extremely flammable.
- The semi-clear fluid is discolored (oxidized rust) water is on the bottom
- the tan separating layer is the result of a chemical reaction involving the oil vapor with water condensation
- the dark brown translucent fluid on top is the oil / gas mixture.
- Engine oil in crankcase was up to level at all times; no oil consumption to report.
Observation: very dry, hot and smoky summer in Colorado due to wildfires; car was driven on longer trips along with 20+ min daily grind to the office.
Thoughts: nothing new to report; steadily watching collection of fluids.
