I'm just trying to see of the original design will work or if it flawed. Right now I'm guessing a design flaw. Does anyone know if it is OK to have a draft fan in the exhaust of an oil fired furnace?

If you received an occupancy permit from the building dept. then it is not a design flaw. After all they should have inspected the house before issuing the permit.
