Not sure, have you tried opening the hood to see if you can figure out where it is coming from?

I am not sure what it could be. Maybe someone else here will have some insight for you. Good luck.

if you have a metal pcv valve in. it is restricting and building pressure that it cant vent try replacing it with a ford(mototcraft) plactic pcv valve
pcv vavles are a metered valve and aftermarket vavles will cause lots of issues
goodluck

should be plugged into the passengerside valve cover (right rear) there should be a short hose connected to it..this is what it may look like yours may be silver in color or covered in black grime
