You sure your dipstick isn't just rattling out? Did you see evidence of oil in the intake before the vacuum pump?

I ran a "massaged" 68-72 pan, with PCV in factory location and vacuum source to carb baseplate. Dave speculated that it was simply the "whirlwind created in the crankcase due to the long stroke". I "think" it was built with a crank scraper, but it's been many moons ago and I'm old and absent-minded.
