Could over topping your oil also produce this? I was a bit over my full mark right after an oil change and this is when it started happening. I drained out to right below the full mark and cleaned off the oil from around the BOV's and now it has seemed to stop. Is this just coincidence?

What vintage is your car? If it was early, built in 1991, it may have had the same problem mine did - throwing oil into the intake on LH corners at track days. A replacement oil pan (different baffling, IIRC), done under warrantee, pretty-much fixed the problem on mine.
So, extra oil would definitely make this worse.
