PCV question... 850

1995-850NA
Due to an excess of oil loss, I took off the manifold, cleaned out the canister (it's only 2 years old), changed the rubber elbows (the ones from FCP were soft and 'jelly like'). No gunk or buildup that I could find. Ran the car for 2 days, noticed that one of the thin vacuum hoses was off of the flame trap (There is a 1/2" one and a thin rigid one). I reached under to put it back on...oil! There seems, to me , to be a lot of oil going into that flame trap...Is this supposed to be a wet area? I thought only gases passed through this..? Maybe the O-ring that I had on that flame trap body (I took it apart and put a new screen in...the other was excellent, but I had a new one on hand) was worn... Thoughts? I want all the oil to stay inside the engine...
