That is supposed to happen.

If you plug up that hole you will kill your engine.
Some oil blowby is normal. And if you dont want the oil entering your intake, and dont want to replace a breather filter every year, Buy a cheap Plastic fuel filter, Connect one side of the hose to your breather port, the other side to the fuel filter. Oil will pool up into the filters container, but any gases will be vented easiely.
