if the oil pipes are partly blocked what would this cause

i found some blockages in my pipe that comes from beside the oil filler cap

it wasnt totally blocked but half

Well it depends what its blocked with ...if its carbonised oil then its caused by a lack of oil changes so give it a good full service . if its blocked with a white sludge its emulsificaton thats caused by either a blown head gasket or
short distance runs ... and what will it cause ? youll end up with negative crankcase pressure and exessive oil consumption as a result :bigeyes:

Well if you have cleaned the breather system and the smoking has stopped then yes but untill you have eliminated the possability its hard to tell .. what was the breather blocked with?
