If the chain well has a common area that drains oil into the sump is the opposite true? Oil from the sump is draining out into the chain well while the car sits? The valve cover also covers part of the chain well. Maybe the 4 quarts I saw was from the chain well???
Dunno just a question as I'm not familiar with the oiling and return circuit.
