Or is it possible the oil seeks to equalize it's level between the tank and motor, by seeping past the oil pump?
How much on the dipstick is 4.8%?
I would ask Peter Z this question. He is better suited to answer this question. My gut feeling is that you're seeing a bit too much drop in the oil tank...
