Pcv valve?

2003 BMW 325 xi
Codes include random misfire and both banks have lean codes.
Drove it home from Maine when I got it (6hr drive) and it did great for having sat 2 yrs.
Soon as I got in my driveway it was blowing white steam and frothy white fluid from under the hood. Is it possible that some old oil sludge is blocking the Pcv and venting exhaust into cooling system? Not to mention it over heats now after only bout fifteen min of driving bout a half our on just idle. Also heat doesnt work nor ac AND I had to wire in my own switch to the radiator fan cuz it doesnt automatically kick on. Just confused if anyone (everyone) has more info on it than me it would b ��
