440ICD won't start

Reguarding fuel in crankcase: I had a 8V92 Detroit with that problem. Had a dealership mess up a crossover fuel line inside the valve cover causing it to leak and run into the oil pan. I'm not familiar with the 2-53 series, but maybe there's a leak inside your valve cover and every time you crank it over it squirts. gregjo1948
