If your distributor is equipped with vacuum advance diaphragm check if that still intact. If the diaphragm is torn it could let crankcase gases (plus water vapour) to go inside distributor. Maybe not while engine is operational (because vacuum still there) but during engine off and cooling. Also consider coating the inside with wd40 see if that helps.
