fuel in oil

Been getting a milky oil drain when I drain the oil. Fuel pressure is about 50 psi. I am unable to get it any lower with the fpr....would this fuel in my oil be due to my high fuel pressure....I was told that 50 psi was a workable pressure but if not how else would i get it lower

Milky could be coolant.

New gasket not torqued properly?

New gasket on but head and/or block surfaces not flat?

See where we're going here. Milky oil is most certainly coolant

block build by map, gasket was torqued properly... oil was fine until fuel pump was hotwired and pressure went way up...
and if coolant was it, i would get a drop in the level, but it stays static

If it is fuel in the oil I would be wondering if you have an injector leaking.

Could just be my ignorance with E-85 as it is not available here so I have no exp with it at all

Have you tried adding it to oil externally? Does it turn milky?

I have read of more moisture/water getting into E85 vs gasoline. Maybe somewhere to look though I'd think the cars driveability would suffer at that point
