Turned out its possible to get a thin plastic tube in through and down the filler hole, the one with screwdriver slot that sits above the clutch, and suck it up, block, take it out and release a tube full of oil.

Tastes great , nah , use a clear plastic tube so you can see where the oil is at. top bodge
Thanks for posting the tip, Kat.

Greatly overfilling the oil level must be avoided, since it can cause excessive oil pressures, and damage oil seals, et cetera. However, if the oil level is only slightly high, the crankcase ventilation tube will automatically, safely remove the small amount of excess oil.
