The only thing I can think of is poor ring sealing which in turn pressurises the crank-case forcing oil up the crank vent pipe into the air box?

Make sure your petcock is shutting off.
The most common reason for this problem is gasoline overflowing from the carbs into the crankcase.
If you add a gallon or two of gasoline to the crankcase, it then blows back into the airbox as an oily/gas mix.
Check your oil sight glass on the clutch cover. Good chance your oil will look very clear and no air bubble at the top of the window.
