I'd make sure the fuel pressure isn't too high, blowing by the needle and seat.

Are small 2 barrel holleys pretty common on fuel pressure requirements? I can get a refulator if necessary, what should the psi be?

Having fuel in the crankcase will thin the oil out and your viscosity will be almost nothing. I encountered that with a small block Ford years ago when the diaphram in the fuel pump ruptured and filled the pan with gasoline.
