John Deere 230lc excavator, 6.8L Powertech engine oil diluted with fuel. Where is it coming from ?

Engine smoking blue smoke and oil viscosity thinner. No smoke when oil is changed. Any help would be appreciated.

    More than likely leaking at fuel injection pump shaft seal or the lift pump causing it.
