I have 7 chainsaws. 6 of them if I forget to drain the oil reservoir will oil the surface of what they are sitting on. What you are seeing is normal.
IMO; use of the oiler creates a siphon. Any oil left in the tank will continue to siphon until the reservoir is empty. I could be wrong, I have been before.
Draining the tank works, nothing else I've tried does. HTH

I had a craftsman with the same problem.There was a crack in the oiler flex line.The part was only a couple of bucks
