I was recently blowing blue smoke out of my exhaust while letting off the throttle while driving. I would hit 10psi, and then when I would shift it would blow this smoke for about 1-3 seconds. I originally thought this might of been bad turbo seals, but also just thought about my PVC system. I currently have it setup like this: Intake manifold to crankcase, crankcase back to charge piping, Could this be just oil getting into the charge piping and causing this issue? When I had the PVC system unhooked I never had these issues. ---

I used to get the same thing. I only had intake mani to valve cover though. Always on deceleration. No one ever had a great answer for it. ---

its real bad to run the Intake mani back into the crank case, your filling your motor up with boost…big nono ---

On the DSM, I had some issues that I fixed with PCV hollowed out, line into a catch can. Side breather off of the valve cover into same catch can, and then one line back into intake, post MAS. On the catch can, I had a PCV valve out of the top, to let boost (blowby) out, but under vacuum, it kept closed. Worked well for me, anyways.
