Too much oil in the crankcase?

If the oil level was ok, there is a serious buildup of pressure in the crankcase. What kind of shape are the rings in? Valve guide and valves? Valves too tight?

Just a few things to check for. Might check the head gasket between the cylinder and the timing chain area. A leakdown test would confirm or deny this as a possibility.
