Well some water is probably condensation but if you really want to know drain the oil.. Are you hearing some internal noise or just noticed this stuff?

Why would you have condensation in your valve covers? What type of breather/vent are you using? Yes, post pics!

ill take some pictures of it tomorrow with the valve covers off ive drained the oil once before when i saw that thinking the same thing but im not sure now
My question is, "Have you ever had a radiator hose burst which exposed your breather to water?" Do you hose down the engine bay to clean?

How much water are you talking about?

You never mentioned that this has happened in the past.

Holy shit.

Awaiting for your answers to my questions, but I would start by removing the intake and see if the problem is there. If not, then the heads...

Is it just the one side, or do you have that brownie mix on both sides?

hey were you there when i pulled the drain plug out of my 301??? a bunch of water came out before the oil. pull your plug change the oil. watch when you pull it though and see if water comes out first. oil floats on water.
