There seems to be a suggestion that the thinned out oil loosened some sludge. On my 216, there is a restriction in the rocker supply fitting under the side cover. Any bit of sludge would definitely block it. Also, your rocker supply is designed so that the overflow dumps out the end of the U pipe. If you have oil running out there than for sure your rockers and or shaft are plugged up.
