The new Civic Type R has an ingenious baffle system in the head that catches most of the blowby and drops it back into the motor, but doesn't completely prevent fuel dilution of the oil

You are right about the Civic Type R, it has a really good system, but just FYI, a lot of manufactures are doing this. Our own LT4 has baffles in the valve covers, and a baffle under the blower. The Hellcat has cool looking baffles in its rockers covers, and from the outside you can see the cool shape. All manufacturers are trying to prevent oil injection, some are more successful than others. Honda did a good job with the Type R.
Good catch on the Type R
