Check the valve cover after everything is heated up well...Possible "milk" in the cover due to condensation when engine is not hot enuf to boil off any water vapors.???

  The blocks have areas with less metal between oil and coolant passages that are known to rust through. I don't know how much material, if any, 'hot-tanking' removes, but there is likely some variance in the castings to begin with.

Sounds like a head gasket, cracked cylinder head or an internal crack in the block. Possibly incorrectly torqued down head so start re-torquing may help but I am not very optimistic.

67 BJ8 Approx 15k mi on rebuilt engine by PO. Recently detected water droplets and creamy oil residue inside valve cover and near oil filler. Pains as engine and car run so well ... grr Did compression test and all OK at around 150 psi Also had oil analysis done that confirmed glycol in oil. Interesting no water found ... assume gets burnt off ? Upon reflection realise had been losing some coolant. Have recently installed a recovery reservoir and attributed the loss to air being removed. Silly me. So need some ideas how to proceed and if there is a likely culprit area? that others may have encountered ? ?Maybe start by re torqueing the head ? Not sure how to retest though apart from another oil test. Remove head ? Thoughts and ideas please rg
