what's "a bit" ? lots of AX guys run a qt overfull. is it more overfull than that?
if you think it's a factor (i don't...) drain it all and add 4 measured qts.

case pressurisation is usually a symptom of something else (bad ring seal, usually) but i can't tell you how the crankcase vent hoses should be vented, and i can't begin to guess what's been done to your engine...
