Oil......
Mine was burning oil but never showed the severe oil fouling on the plugs. Guess the plugs stay hot enough.
I think the only time you will see oil deposits if if your are SEVERELY burning oil.

when you rev your engine is it when the car has been sitting for a while.. if so it might just be your valve stem seals...

my 1989 chevrolet astro van, has bad valve stem seals, and when the car has been sitting for a few hours it smokes on startup for a couple of seconds to a minute or two, depending on the temperautre of the engine..
