Should oil squirt out of the cam cap? Oil shouldn't squirt out of anywhere! If you are leaking oil from the cam cap, then you have a problem. Perhaps you are pressurizing your valve cover (through the PCV line or something else). All of the AN style oil lines should be snug, but not tight. They seal using two matching beveled surfaces that don't need much pressure to seal up. NPT style connections should be tight (oil sender and tee). They require teflon sealant and must be tightened down pretty good.
