Crankcase fumes are WAY worse than exhaust. They contain everything the
catalytic converter neutralizes when basically the same stuff makes it down
the exhaust pipe, except that it's not neutralized yet.

Plus crankcase gases contain lots more unburnt fuel than exhaust gas.

Modern unleaded ethanolized gasoline produces eye-searing, nose rotting
exhaust in cars with no cats, so imagine that coming directly out of your
crankcase.
