How long have you had this car? Is the ECU Chipped?

I would consider gas in your oil a bad thing. Seems to be the fuel would thin the oil out and cause the oil not be as slick as normal. However, I am no expert on that.

Incorporate some punctuation into your writing.

Any CEL codes? Is the ignition timing set to spec? Is your fuel pressure high?

Oh dude i had this problem with exactly the same motor. It was my tp sensor. Its the sensor on top of your intake manifold. I was missing a little rubber part that holds the sensor to the manifold. I got that lil rubber thing and it was fine. But yeah it was running hella rich. Like gas was literally squirting out of the exhaust. So yeah you might wanna check that out
