A cracked fuel line in the intake manifold will spray fuel into the manifold where it drains into the oil pan or a fuel pressure regulator with a bad diaphragm will allow fuel to flow into the vacuum line that attaches to the regulator to let it meter more fuel under acceleration this fuel also winds up in the oil pan.
