Oil in the carburetor drain can indicate a few potential issues, such as a faulty oil seal or a problem with the engine's lubrication system. This may lead to oil leaking into the carburetor, which can disrupt the air-fuel mixture and affect engine performance. It could also signify a more significant issue, like engine wear or damage, requiring immediate attention to prevent further engine problems. Regular maintenance and checks can help prevent this situation.
On a push mower you take the oil cap off our drain plug out (which ever it has) and tip the mower on its side with the carburetor up. Once the oil is drained, refill it. Riding lawn mowers have an oil drain bolt on the bottom of the engine and you change the oil and filter kind of like a car

If it like most Honda engines, the whole engine needs to be removed from the deck to get to the drain plug. As this is not an easy task, the best way is to turn the mower on it's side (make sure you do not turn it onto the carburetor side) and drain the oil from the fill tube.
