Your rings could be bad, and you are getting blow-by into the crankcase. Then all that excess pressure is blowing the oil out the breather?????

Do a compression and leak down test.

By "full of oil" do you men like there is a half inch in the bottom of the airbox, or are we talking a quart or what???
