I don't think this is really as bad as it sounds. Engines create a small amount of gasses (smoke) in the crank case due to the heat in there and the crank mixing the oil up. The gasses are usually then fed back into the engine to be burned and passed through the exhaust. What tends to happen though is the gasses build up as a residue and block the pipe to the filter. I would assume that's why the gasses were being forced out of the dipstick pipe instead.

Give everything a could clean and especially wash out the pipe that goes from the crank case to the filter.

should be that simple!

Ye, as above, perhaps the breather pipes had become blocked, so instead of the crankcase breather breathing back into the inlet, it was breathing out another pipe/hole, in this case the dipstick tube.
