Try removing the rocker cover, block the hole or I put a long bit of rubber hose and make sure it's sticking up and with the rocker cover inside down pour "Gunk" engine degreaser all in the rocker cover and fill it up over the metal gauze and leave it to soak over night, next day wash it out by spraying water from a hose pipe down the outlet to flush it all out. Leave to dry in the sun then refit.
Might not be your problem but worth having a look?

If after a good run, with the car to temp, then you may have a blown head gasket, or oil cooler.
