Please help me diagnose this 273

The PO jacked up the kickdown linkage when he did the manifold/carb swap, so no, I haven’t driven it much. I did drive it around the block very slowly to make sure it wouldn’t die. I have a Bouschillon kickdown setup I’ll be installing in the next couple days and then I should be driving.
Any thoughts on the spark plug oiling?

If the intake valve was way out of adjustment and not opening much it will suck oil up around the rings, plus you don't have a good fire on that cyl to burn off the oil.
