Check the PCV circuit. Chances that blow-by is putting the fumes into the
crankcase. Also check the EGR system. A leaking EGR (valve not closing off completely at idle) will cause these problems too. Don't know specifically about that engine but egr valves usually have to be cleaned when carbon builds up on the seat and the valve can't close.
