I assume when you talk about the air intake snorkel, you are talking about the air intake for the carb and not the pvt. The engine oil system is vented into the air box. The only time I have had oil in the airbox on my 325 is because I flipped it backward and the oil was allowed to run in. When the oil ran in, it soaked my air filter, causing it to run crappy until I replaced it. I assume you have checked the oil level in the engine and it is not overfull. If the engine oil level was to high, it will spit oil out through the vent line. Also, you may have some sort of oil line restriction that is causing extra pressure in the system, causing it to spit oil out through the vent line. Check all of your oil line to see if there is any that are pinched. Hope this helps. Be sure to clean all of that oil out of your airbox or you will have a dirty mess when the dust eventually begins to fly.
