The only way I can think of that gas would be in the oil is one of your fuel injectors is leaking fuel into the cylinder. The gas would work itself past the piston rings into the crankcase. If there is raw gas dripping into one cylinder when you start it up I would expect a backfire from the muffler due to the excessive fuel collecting in there. Is it doing that?
Whatever the case, I would take it to the dealer right away.
