Looks like it was just from moisture/condensation in the crankcase. Looks normal.

No, really, as soon as I changed the (cracked), cover, (keep in mind a new PCV valve came with it so it coulve been the culprit too) I get not even 1/5th of what I collected on that day during the same time frame.

How the hell did you crack the cover?

Anyway, when I worked for BMW, it was common to see that crap caked all on the bottom of the oil caps. But that was mostly on customers cars that didn't change their oil regularly. I've never seen it on my oil cap.

Dude, you seriously need to look at changing your diet, if my toilet look like that I think I'd go to the ER.

that was back when i was a noob and i over-tightened one of the bolts which cracked the cover, had an oil/vacuum leak ever since. :(
