Welcome to KF

What is your oil level sight glass at? check the oil for gas (seepage from a bad float needle from the carbs)

the oil level was good, it was spitting out like it was mix with gas, but didn't think a float needle would cause it to blow out the breather hole. thanks

hmm, if the oil level is good, then I would not consider a float needle issue

Hmm is right, had it running before with no issues, because i took the carbs
off & clean out all the jets, and ran great, then two days later i go &
start it & thats when it started blowing out. Any other suggestion.
Thanks

Have you checked your oil pressure yet?

38-47psi @4k rpm 194 deg F

Relief valve pressure 63-85psi

Start the engine and read the oil pressure gauge while running the engine at various speeds. A normal relief valve keeps the maximum oil pressure between the the readings listed above.
