2008 Cayenne Turbo excessive crankcase vacuum

I just bought the car from a dealer earlier this month (no warranty/my loss **** happens) with 55,000 miles on it.
The car drove fine for the first couple hundred miles then I got a misfire code for cylinder 8 I pulled the plug and it was fouled bad other spark plugs looked fine, did a compression check on all the cylinders everything it within spec. I checked the Air-Oil separator and the diaphragm seemed fine. Kinda stumped right now.

Any help/ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Worst comes to worse if anyone knows of any good shops in the Baltimore, MD area would be great.

mako88 is an unknown quantity at this point
Wink Sucking oil into intake

I thought my diaphragm was ok too until further and much closer inspection. It had a hairline split that was barely noticeable. Lifted off manifold cover and intake valves were a horror story of sludge. I bought the car like this, unfortunately. Discovered 4 valves weren't seating. Cleaned intake valves as best I could. Installed a $14 oil can separator and within 2 weeks 2 valves re-seated themselves. The suction is crazy on these engines, but that's why they are so powerful.
