If so, do these filters prevent large amounts of oil from entering the PCV system?If Im understanding this right,maybe mine are either missing or deteriorated enough to pull excessive amounts of oil through that area..Also,this car sat for the last 8 yrs before it was recently being used regularly again..

Yes....as Kevin described.....the Cam Cover is what I show.
That filter goes inside the end of the Cam Cover towards the front.
You will see a Vent Tube inserted in the front top of the Cam Cover that directs vapors to the Air Horn which is what is connected to the Air Bellows (usually Black and corrugated). The other end of that Bellows is attached to the Air Filter Intake.
The Vent Tube is located on each side one in each Cam Cover. The Vent Tube extends up and under the Injector Housing Coolant Manifolds where it connects to a rubber hose...that rubber hose then connects to a port located on each side of the Air Horn.
These filters do get brittle and when removing them (there is a wire keeper) sometimes they will just crumble. Whenever you remove a Cam Cover ALWAYS replace the Cam Cover Filters. Also check the Chain guide located just in front of those filters located in the tops of Each Cam Cover.
