Your car is running too rich perhaps. Change the oil soon, cause if gas is in it, it cuts down the oil's ability to lubricate. This may be a result of your other problem.

If your cat is clogged, like we suspect, this will cause increased backpressure in the exhaust. With this increased backpressure, I'm assuming that blow-by (leakage of exhaust gas into crankcase) is increased. Unburnt fuel will end up in oil. Read Pete's post...

Stock cat is 3" in and 3" out. The outlet is then reduced down to 2.25". I would get a 3" in/3" out cat, and have your exhaust guy make it work. It won't hurt my feelings if you prefer to get other opinions. In fact I'd prefer you did, so you know your options.
