blowby out dipstick tube

I have about had it with this truck. I bought it and it has been nothing but problems. Now I am getting oil out the dipstick tube and all over the engine compartment. I checked the puke bottle and there isn't much oil in it but it is coming back up throught the dipstick tupe which has got me worried.

I can't believe the piston rings are bad already at 189,000 miles but its looking like they are.

The only other option i can think of would be a bad vacuum pump because my heater isn't working as good as it should be but im doubting that. Any help or ideas would be appreciated.

Is the vent tube/block passages for the puke bottle clear? I`ve not seen it myself but I`ve heard of them getting stopped up/clogged and causing leaks etc.
