It might happen because of a faulty starter gasket. :)

u may want to find out if there an oil sensor above ur starter.i know on my car.i had a stream coming from above the starter and it was the oil pressure sensor.
Valve cover gaskets?
Hi, the oil pressure switch is located just above the starter, if it breaks out comes the oil ! Dave
make sure the leak is not coming from above the starter, like from the valve cover gasket, if it isn`t then it probably is the rear crankshaft seal which would require the removal of the tranny to replace.
No, the oil is more than likely from a leaking rear main seal or from the valve cover which may appear to be leaking at the starter. The starter uses no oil so it cannot leak oil.
The starter should be tight! It can cause an oil leak if it hits the oil filter and makes a hole in it (oil filter is like a coke can). If your starter is moving you must first tighten it down it's two bolts.
you have an oil leak which is leaking down into your starter causing it to not operate. fix your oil leak clean out the oil from the starter, put the starter back on and everything will be everything
An oil leak on the starter side of a 5.4 engine could be due to several factors, including a worn or damaged oil pan gasket, a faulty valve cover gasket, or a leaking oil pressure sender. Additionally, the rear main seal may also be a potential culprit, especially if the oil is pooling near the transmission. It's important to thoroughly inspect these components to identify the source of the leak and address it promptly to avoid further engine damage.
no the oil will not drain out if you remove starter starter does not mount inside engine. it mountst at side of engine and intobell housing. there is no oil in there unless you have a major,major oil leak
No, oil doesn't come out of the starter, either your distributor plug is leaking or you are leaking oil out of your front valve cover.
