Default Flywheel Nut Cover BLEW Off!

I was idling my stock raptor to check the oil. I won't lie, I left to o something for five minute's. When I came back, my raptor was not running, there was the scent of burnt oil in the air, and that little screw in plastic cap on the center of the flywheel cover was laying on the floor about 2 1/2 feet away! I don't realy know what happened, but my first guess is I was running rich, and fuel was getting past my rings, into the oil, and then BOOM... just like I had happen to me on my 47 Willis Jeep, the gas in the crank case exploded blowing that screw in plastic cap right off. Remember, that's just a guess.
