Default Gas in my catch can???

I have a AMW catch can that seems to have gas in it? I was changing the oil after 2k miles and I noticed the dipstick had some sludgy stuff on it. I thought great, I have a blown head gasket or something allowing coolant in my oil. I drained the oil and didnt see any coolant?? Then I drained the catch can which was like a milk shake and noticed it smelled like gas. Then smelt the oil I drained and noticed the gas smell too?? How is gas getting into my oil? I am also having some tunning issues with some surging, and it seems like my car is running rich or loading up cause it sometimes acts like it but I pulled the plugs and they are very white so its running lean??? My A/F on my dyno was good though??? Can anyone lead me into the right direction?

Default

Normally gas in the oil would point to bad rings
