Does it smell like gas? Didja check the oil before you started it?

I would make sure the breather reed valve and filter is clean and working properly. Worst case is there is excessive cylinder blow-by that is overloading the crankcase ventilation system.

Breather is malfunctioning, excessive blowby, or was overfilled with oil.

Or a bad seal sucking in air.

Why? Fix the carb and/or fuel pump and change the oil. This is an extremely common issue with these engines. No need to throw the baby out with the bath water.

And does anything look bad here ?

I think it should come of without taking all that stuff off, but it has been awhile. I'd do a better job of cleaning before any further disassembly though.
That is the "old" breather. New one is a metal reed valve and should actually work.

If you order a new OEM breather assembly, that is what you will get.
