You can try an oil seperator before the the pump. With that kind of oil getting in the vanes in the pump wont last long.. Steffs makes a nice one..

Steffs Oil/Air separator was a big help for mine.

Sometimes this is a windage problem, at least it can be with a mopar big block. I was running a 6 inch deep dragster pan (total of 8 3/4 inchs from crank centerline to bottom of the pan), throwing oil out all the time. Went to a pan designed for my car out of Ray Bartons shop that had a bit more depth and a sidebucket, no more oil problems, just a bit of water from the alky.
