    get a leakdown then compression test done at a reputable shop.. this will tell you what's wrong

    i'm guessing bad piston rings

    get the tests done asap and then try to discuss it with the company you bought the motor from

    This might be the problem since you said that when you pulled out spark plug #3 it had oil then this def is your problem. Also when you swaped it did you start to rev it high rpm? If so this happens when this is done.
