Has anyone experienced oil blowout from the gearbox breather on track, and oil around the bottom of the gearbox?

Just did a day at Sydney Motorsport Park in my 2024 Z (6MT) and came home with oil around the breather area and also around the bottom of the gearbox. Multiple hard sessions, I assume the heat load was significant. Currently running MT90.

Looking at a catch can..

Keen to hear from anyone who’s actually dealt with this — Any cooler kits that actually fit the RZ34? Or best workaround!

Cheers

Minor, with my 350Z at autoX, but never did anything about it.
It would be a DIY setup, but very doable. I'd go Radium, personally. Make sure the outlet is VTA to keep from pressurizing. If you go that route plumb in your diff breather in as well.
