Yeah I would agree with getting some degreaser and cleaning everything up first to see where the oil is coming from. Maybe the breather on top of the engine is clogged and causing oil leaks or causing oil into the cylinders which would also give you unwanted RPM and obviously oil consumption. But with the fact that you say it's very very hard to start when it's cold would make me think that it's low on compression and just probably worn out. Do you put any throttle input when trying to start it?
