I hope the machining on the motor was do correctly

Any amount of vacuum is still a vacuum, low pressure.
The
oil being thrown around by the camshaft and lifters, and the crankcase vapour is in a higher pressure area compared to any of the inlet ports for the majority of the time the engine is running.
Only time they would approach equal would be at wide open throttle.
Even wild cams produce vacuum, albeit at lower levels than stock cams.
While your intake is off, I would observe the base of the inlet guide for
oil moisture towards the valve seat, and if so, replace your valve guide seals with a better product.
