ok so my Yamaha warrior flooded and i cleaned the carb and it happened again so i Tried again and now i realized it is coming from the crankcase breather that is in the airbox. the gas has like a oily mix in it.? Is it in need of new rings or is it a simple fix?

First, get the flooding under control. Make 100% sure that when the float rises to the setpoint that it is completely shutting off the fuel supply.

Now- check your oil. If it feels thin and/or smells like fuel, change it immediately. One, the level is likely too high with the gas in there, and it's blowing up the PCV system into the airbox. Two- with the gas dilution, your oil has lost it's lubricity and you're moments away from mangling your engine...
