My RX-8 is dumping oil out of the dipstick trying to figure out what could be the cause of this

Eddie, It'd be helpful if you provided more information, e.g.
- what year?
- is your car stock ?
- if not stock ,what h/b done: added /removed ?
- has any maintenance work been done recently?
- Oil change lately..., and is the level topped up, but NOT overfilled?

Without knowing any of this... my guess w/b oil is overfilled and/or an intake/breather vacuum hose is disconnected or damaged... from natural deterioration...or recent work on the vehicle.

Its gotta be pretty full to come out there. USually blowby comes out the vent to the throttle bellows area.

If the dipstick is partially out it can leak a bit...
