A ventilating system is provided for the crankcase of an internal combustion engine. The system includes an engine block provided with a crankcase and an upright housing, the latter having a lower section communicating with the crankcase and an upper section provided with a vent to the exterior of the engine. A crankshaft is mounted within the crankcase and is drivingly connected to a pressure-generating means disposed within the housing upper section and adjacent the vent. The driven presssure-generating means effects a predetermined pressure within the housing which is greater than the exterior pressure of the engine.
