Worse case scenario. Float needle stuck in the carb with piston on the intake stroke. Rings may have washed out allowing fuel to pass into the crankcase. You didn't state how much gas though. Your yz uses the oil in the gas to lubricate the crankcase so a little is normal.

Why would a Briggs and Stratton motor dump large amounts of gas into the crankcase?

Because the carburetor on these motors are no good after a few years. The carburetor will spew large amounts of gas into the crankcase and you do need to change the oil about 3 times after this happens to protect your engine and get all the gas out of your crankcase. The replacement carbs are supposed to be much better than the ones supplied with your engine. A new carb is about $125.00 excluding labor.
