The only time I've known this to happen on internal combustion engines was when the combustion gas pressures passed the compression rings and passed the oil control ring to cause crankcase pressures to force out oil spray. Oil spray within the crankcase is normal, it is when the negative pressure outside forces it out of filler. Now might be a good time to run a compression test on the cylinders for the heck of it. bd
