It never affected the oil in my TJ, YJ, XJ, WJ, Mazda, or Mustang when adding it to the vac hose off the booster.

When I seafoam my engines I add Seafoam to the Vac line for the brake booster, Gas tank, and the oil. an change the oil after driving it a few miles

I suppose if you had some blowby it'd let some seafoam into the oil. I've heard that it doesn't take much of it to thin out the oil.
