Had that with my Anglia in the 60s, blocked crank case breather. I doubt that's a lot of help though!

Had it in the garage for a few other things to be done yesterday so I asked my mechanic to have a look around for a blocked breather or anything else that can cause the problem turns out the grooves that lock the oil filler cap in place are completely worn out. Seems I was looking into it too much.
