Use a 20 ounce bottle of Techron Concentrate. That will clean injectors and combustion chambers and I expect would help with sticking piston rings and excess blowby. Use 16 ounce bottles every 8K or 3x/year thereafter.
If the above does not help, try some add to oil products that claim to free sticking rings/valves. Read and follow the directions.
PCV mods may also help, but the the forcing function would still be excess blowby gases in that case.
The valve cover is easy to remove to check for sludging and the need for further chemical cleaning etc.
