2. Sucking oil from the bottom of the ported Super Victor. Took off the carb and I can see the intake runners. Don't look oily. Taped a Q-tip onto the end of a piece of TIG wire and ran it along the port floors. Just a little fuel wet, but not oily.
That's where I would look first. It easy enough to take the intake off and look for gasket compression and oil in the intake runners. What seems to be fuel wet may indeed be oil. You'll see it one way or the other when you remove the intake.
I say this because it happened to me. In my case, the heads were milled, the intake was milled to match, and as a result the intake manifold bottomed on the front & rear rails not allowing the intake to seal. I could see the lack of imprint in the intake gasket when I removed and also found oil at the intake runner/head port interface. I corrected the machine work and subsequently used sealant around the intake ports.
Just a guess, but it's easier to remove the intake than mess with valve seals. I doubt those seals are the issue even if you did cut them a bit on install. JMO.
