Like a quarter inch on the dipstick? Might want to do a compression check. I know with semi's, dumping a lot of fuel into the oil could mean bad rings and the fuel is getting past the piston rings, but usually have a loss of power and poor performance. Sorry to worry you. Hope it's something simple.

Did you complete the compression test?
If yes, what were the numbers?

Burnt pins and bad icp can and usually do cause rough running and smokey conditions...
Keeping fingers crossed for you man and hoping for good compression.

That shouldnt happen unless you also pulled the injectors...
The injectors need to be in their holes and torqued down for compression test...

Otherwise... if you just mean quick puffs of fuely mist... thats normal. They should puff a couple of times then run clean... make sure injectors are unplugged... best way is the valve cover harness connector... or the big 42 pin connector.

i just tried to do a test on the GP hole that the fuel is coming out of and went to release the pressure and fuel leaked out the release button.

Unplug the 42 pin connector like said above. That should keep the injectors from pumping fuel.

You need to figure out if its fuel or coolant.
If its fuel... i think you got bad problems...
If its coolant... maybe just a cup
