tuning.

well just because you have oil dripping out of your pipe doesn't mean your engine is rich,check your engine settings and if you do not know the settings start at high speed needle-shut it fully and open it 1 3/4 turns and low speed needle-1 1/2 turn open from shut position.

you can tune from there,if you don't know how check the thread on here (idiots guide to engine tuning) check old threads and you will find it.

what pipe have you?
oil will build up in a tuned pipe to some extent anyway because of the size of the pipe even if you have your engine running ok.

i would think you are running too rich though,check them needles on the carb.
 
before you spend a good half hour re-tuning. run it a bit and check your plug. if your plug is oily black, then you were running too rich last time. if its a dark chocolate but clean color, it could simply be build up in the pipe/case. it has happened to me as well. just makes a super mess. and it doesn't matter what pipe you have. it has happened to me with a stock can most of the time but also my fg tuned pipe. the big thing is to run it out. if you rig sits a while with fuel in the carb and crank it will evaperate und just leave the oil behind to make a mess. but if you arent running to rich its not enough to foul a plug
