Fuel in engine block!

Drained about 4-1/2...5 quart jugs of fuel/oil mix out of engine block. Suspect injectors letting fuel in all the time? Any one else had this problem?

From: In Oroville, Ca., same house for past 46 yrs!
you mean out of the waterjacket area? or just when changing oil out of the oil pan...
I suspect the later...
I would suspect injectors first off but there's thru-fittings in the head that could be the culpret too although unlikely. A crack in an internal injector line going from the feedthru to the injector could be to blame as well. In essence, any where fuel is present that a leak would allow it to go into the oil, is a potential spot to look at.

Just when I dumped the oil. I have already pulled the fuel rail and getting ready to pull the injectors & internal tubes for replacement. [ thank you ].
