I got my xl 701 am running today, changed the seals. Would not idle really or take an adjustment on low speed spitting out what looked like oil from the exhaust but was using the premix stuff that’s clear, also checked the gas tank after and noticed exhaust smoke in the gas tank? Is that even possible??

Welcome to HOH! Exhaust in the fuel tank isn't possible...likely the saw was warm/hot and you were seeing fuel vapor. It sounds like the saw is running extremely rich; have you already dug into the carburetor? IIRC that will be a Tillotson HS series, so rebuild kits are easy to come by and relatively simple to install.
