You are sure it's gas? How is the car running? Any problems there?

Uh...there's no way for gasoline to get into the intake.

Ya, I can see some oil due to PCV system etc. Happens a lot more on turbo cars (thus the reason you can get a catch-can), but there's no path for fuel to take to get in the intake.

Are you positive it was fuel? Or was it just a non-viscous fluid?
