A "catch" can is supposed to collect excess oil from the crankcase-that is it's function. Fuel on the other hand, should not be showing up in your catch can. The only time I ever saw lots of fuel in the crankcase was on a car with a bad ECU. The ECU was holding the injectors open all of the time and keeping the fuel pump running constantly. That car did not run.

A Catch can is supposed to collect blowby vapors, which is air/fuel mixture that pushes past the rings and mixes with the oil cloud.

You should be getting a oil/fuel milkly brown mixture in the catch can.

Blowby and raw fuel are two different things. As far as the results of the compression and leakdown tests-looks like it's time for the head to come off, perhaps a complete teardown

^^ did you make sure that the motor was warm because your pistons are forged and they need to expand

when you add oil it will obviously boost the comp. numbers because you are adding mass to the cylinder which makes less space which means more compression...

the only way i see the gas getting there is obviously if the motor isn't burning it all (get the car tunned) and because of poor valve seals and while combustions occurs maybe it forces the unburnt fuel to the head...just a clue, never said i was possitive

Sounds like a tuning/break in issue.

bingo!!!! you win the dread.
also what kinda ccatch can set- up are you using. becasue u have seen problems with too much oil entering the catch can from a endyn set-up with out siphon tubes on the back of the block. the furl on the other hand if the compression numbers are good are more than likly your a/f ratio is too rich. and its spraying down the cylinder walls and not being burn during cumbustion. this will cause the cylinder walls to sctach and the rings to go. and dilute the oil
