Pablito - It seems like you are assuming you have water in the oil. When you last drained the oil - did you have any water come out when you first removed the drain plug?
In the old days (when leaded gasoline was prevalent) a grey colored oil (gas smelly) was a good indication of incomplete combustion (running way too rich on fuel/air ratio) contaminating the crankcase. Today, with unleaded gasoline, the contamination would be less grey but still be gas smelly. I would suggest you run it for a while (reach operating temp with engine), shut it down and let it set over night. Then barely open the drain plug and see if water comes out at all. If not, I think you have a fuel problem rather than a water problem.
If you do get water and it's the color of your anti-freeze in the radiator then you probably have a sleeve(s) seal(s) leaking. If the water is clear, then it's either rain (muffler?) or condensation in the crankcase. Let us know what you find. bob f.
