Clean it out and then look for it next time.
Usually when oil/water mix (like a blown seal or something) it will be milky, but usually a little darker, chocolatier. That looks like white cream or something.

dont worry about it. read in the first gen section, happens all the time to them. replace you PCV, and check your vacuum line going to your filler neck. The FB guys will tell you to come down a hill in a low gear, letting your motor slow you down at a high RPM. Generates a lot of vacuum and clears all that crud out. Worked on my FB anyways.

My bad dude 
Wow, even I found that tasteless. From my understanding it happens when coolant mixes...but that's a little to white for that.

In the 8 years that I've had my FD I have never seen milkyness in my oil.
I am not arguing with you all that say that you have that and it is normal. I have just never seen it. But at least if I my oil ever has that, my first reaction wont be to **** my pants lol.

Out here it'll drop in temp 30 degrees in the course of a day.
I'll get condensation on the inside of the car under the hood etc...

Oil Catch Tanks
GReddy Oil Catch Tanks collect the oil, moisture and blow-by gases that cause carbon and sludge build-up in the intake system and engine to keep them clean even under the hardest driving conditions. The Traditional (Sq.) model holds 500ml and can be mounted vertically or horizontally, while the high capacity 1000ml Lightweight (Oval) is better suited for vertical mounting.
