It sounds to me like you had a leak from one of your OMP (Oil Metering Pump) lines. This is NOT a good thing!!! Just to be safe I would start premixing (2-stroke ashless premix, make sure its tcw-3) 1oz. per gallon of gas until you get that fixed..

Also, just an fyi.. rotaries are designed to have oil injected into the combustion chamber to lubricate the seals. This is a REQUIRED process. If you broke one of the lines delivering this oil for injection you're going to need to replace/fix that immediately. People will commonly remove the factory oil injection equipment because of the potential for malfunction (like you're experiencing), but it is critical that you account for that by pouring lubricating oil directly into the fuel tank.

The standard accepted ratio of oil to fuel is 1:128, or 1oz (US) to 1gal (US). You could throw in 1oz per 3 litres of fuel to be safe.
