Someone put too much oil in at one time and the breather hose connected to the top black rubber intake boot supplied the extra oil-mist into the airbox at high revs.
The airbox can be cleaned out but, the intake runners and the cylinders/valves will be caked up. Internal engine cleaners and running the engine hot for a while will clear that up.
Always keep the oil level at the middle of the stick: Level ground, engine hot and running, manual check.
When you open the oil cap, revs should drop about 50 RPM's.
If there is no drop, you have a vacuum leak from the 2 breather hoses. Clean the inside of the hoses and put a clamp on each end if there isn't one already. (4 clamps altogether, the one on the engine breather cap is hard to reach) You may find a nipple with a screen in the top breather hose; clean the screen.
