There are many options for that problem and it is a pretty normal question around here. You couls replace the factory Air cleaner assy with something that flows better and has provisions for rerouting the blowby gases. Usually to the ground.
There are a few mods that can be done to the factory air cleaner as well. If you do a search on here you will find dozens and dozens of threads on this..

BYW Use the search function at the bottom of the screen, it works best..

J&P sells a couple nice breather set-ups that allow you to remote mount a breather filter away from the air cleaner area down behind the engine.
