You should consider buying a service manual.

Boy, talk about an overly complicated design just to vent crankcase pressure.
Thanks for posting that!

Nope and I've looked and checked everthing. All seems to be as it should. I haven't and don't want to go into the rocker boxes..

That's the only way to definitively check the rocker box breather system. Gotta raise the upper cover and unbolt the breathers. It's an 08 it has the older style plastic breathers.
