Could be a number of things, first I would check for correct fuel pressure, if you drive short distances it may not be burning all of the fuel, check map sensor which will cause overfueling, and first of all change that oil, fuel in it is not good.

fuel in your oil will blow your motor up you can check for a leaky injector or it could be a intake gasket also them cars are know for leaky intake gaskets

fuel in oil will NOT blow your engine BUT will clean it was good ( too good ). in the military we sometimes used fuel mixed with gas to clean sludged oil and carbon build-ups in engines, sometimes we would do 50% fuel/oil and sometimes up to 75/25% fuel/oil depending on what was needed. only run it for a 2-3mins and shut down, drain the oil pan and you would be SURPRISED what comes out.
Anyway. i would chk gaskets, cracked intake or sleeve.
