Oil in the filter coming from the rocker cover in a new motor suggests the rings have not bedded in properly..
Could be a few reasons but most likely is incorrect honing procedure.

Could be the PRV is stuffed into the intake manifold...

check the line and valve at the tee off into the manifold from the rocker breather to the air box..

of course... rings is the other culprit...

If you JUST had it rebuilt and this is one of your first drives, then some oil blow by would be normal. but if you have 1000+kms on the motor and it has done this, then i'd say the rings havnt bedded in properly.
