Default possible fuel problem?

i have a freshly swapped ef dx with d16z6 and i recently took out the spark plugs only to find that they are covered with soot or carbon and the number one plug i took out started to smoke and smelled extremely rich with fuel as so did the spark plug hole. After that i proceded to take off the dizzy only to find the oil in the head to smell like gasoline as well. when i turn my car on it idles really low. What is causing my problem? please help

Have you done a compression test? Very low compression will cause improper combustion and blowby will make you oil smell like fuel.
