Blow-by gas in a plurality of crank chambers (71-73) in a V-shaped internal combustion engine is led to a plurality of gas introducing chambers (9a, 9b, 9c) via communicating holes (11-14). The blow-by gas then flows into an oil separator (31), which extends in a front-aft direction of the internal combustion engine, from the gas introducing chambers (9a, 9b, 9c). The blow-by gas inlet (33) of the oil separator (31) is provided in the vicinity of the engine front or the engine rear. By providing a guide member (35, 41) which guides the blow-by gas from the gas introducing chamber (9a) which is closest to the blow-by gas inlet (33) to the blow-by gas inlet (33) in a direction heading away from the blow-by gas inlet (33) and then guides it to the blow-by gas inlet (33), pumping loss in the internal combustion engine can be reduced.
