Water from where?

How do you do that? Is crankcase breather hose part of PCV system? I
recently changed that hose, but that hose has different diameter on one
end than diameter on other end and I could not find hose like that. So I
made a metal reducer that reduces diameter conically, and two constant
diameter hoses on each end. Maybe it's clogged?
It's snowing here, and very cold, I will check that when snow melts.
And your problem happened twice in two weeks, and I still drive with no
problems (that I can notice :-)

My car is some 16 years old, I do not think that there might be any
recall.
