Oil Continues to Leak (and Other Symptoms) After PCV Replacement S90-V90 1998

No distributor on this car!

I can’t imagine the PCV is still clogged. I checked each of the ports on the engine for sludge and saw (and felt!) nothing.

My money is on the front cam seal. I’m guessing I need a special tool to hold the cams in place while undoing the bolts? Or could I just hold the timing belt really tight/jam a screwdriver in there somewhere?

Granted, I’m gonna drive it a bit and see if the leak dies down. Maybe what I’m seeing is residual oil from pooling up at the top by the coils. It’s wishful thinking...
