Sounds like its breathing too heavily.

I'd suggest cleaning out all the breather pipes & renewing the gauze under the rocker cover as they may be blocked, but I fear a leak down test might show up knackered rings which are resulting in blow-by & excess crank case pressures are pushing more gases through the breather system.
