What engine is it?

In the old Ford 292 series it was a common problem to have the camshaft bearing "turn", blocking the oil line.

The Chev inline 6 used a hollow head bolt that had to be in a specific position to allow pressurized oil to the head. If some other head bolt was put in that position there would be no oil pressure to the rockers.

Check to see the routing of the oil pressure line to the head then backtrack to the most vulnerable position.

What causes pressure to come out the oil fill hole?

One possible cause is a blocked PCV (positive crankcase ventilation) valve. As your motor is running the crankcase will build with pressure and the PCV system will let the motor breathe. If the PCV valve is blocked or faulty then the motor will look to release the pressure somewhere else.
