after 300 miles , mag has oil inside causing failure. oil is returning to tank what could be the problem.
no oil smoke from exhausts.
The crankcase breather pipe…
The crankcase breather pipe got flattened on my Atlas so the engine breathed thro the mag.

I would suggest checking the oil pressure relief valve piston. Which may have stuck in a fully open position. This in turn would flood the timing cover with oil which, in turn, would be forced through the magneto oil seal by pressure in the crankcase. Sometimes a simple cure to this is a new pressure valve spring.
