Yes. You are getting condensation from the exhaust into the air
cleaner. The pulse air valves are designed to allow air from the air
cleaner into the exhaust system, but not let exhaust into the air
cleaner. One or both of those valves have failed causing your
problem.

Re: Water in Breather
Besides a possible failure in the pulse air system, I would be wanting
to verify the PCV valve has suction. I would test for suction on a
warm/hot engine at various throttle positions. On the last bunch of
carb engines, they put a solenoid at the back of the carb to regulate
the PCV flow and the charcoal canister flow. This was a bad part from
the get go and the fix is to bypass it with a T fitting.
You could test the pulse air system by removing the hoses one at a time
to see if the water stops. This would let you know which valve is bad
if any. I don't know what the factory test is for those valves, but
elimination sure would narrow it down. A wine cork will block the hole
in the air filter.
