6.7 blowby

Ok guys. I have a 12 f350 with 1800 miles so today out of curiosity I decided to take the oil cap off while it was hot and running, and I damm near **** myself when I saw all that smoke coming out of it. So my question is Is this normal? Or should I worry

Since the 6.4's they have been increasing the ring gap, its seems that with the high boost motors it makes them live longer so its normal and nothing to worry over.

Sorry for the blunt response. But I have never raised the hood on a 6.0 so I would not have known that. But every other diesel I have, kubota rtv, JD 4430, 6.7, does it. Not exactly sure what cause it but would love to be enlightened lol.
