oil in coolant or ?
i have seen oil in the coolant system a few times and this look diffrent to me. its a diffrent color and is more like a hard paste and is dry. we installed a short block on this unit around 1k miles ago and this just turned up. no coolant in the oil system. cm2350.

Is it on the Dipstick too? Did you cut open the oil filter and look in there?

it is not on the dipstick and there is nothing in the oil filler cap. drained a litte oil and did not find any water. coolant system holds pressure. i have not cut open the oil filter. its strange i have never seen a paste light this. its dry also , so if you rub it between your finers it crumbles.

== take an oil and coolant samples and send them to an actual decent lab that does not use those useless 'Quickchange' machines like you see at speedco, etc.. to check the sample.

== do an oil change + flush the coolant system.

== run it and keep an eye on coolant levels.

== Do oil sampling when oil change is due again and see if contaminant levels drop.
