Default Is this normal blow by?? please take a look

After i put the breather filter on the valve cover this is what i started to see. On the fuel rail you will see the liquid residue. Its like water. Not anything like oil, minus the light brown color. But what bothers me is seeing the CLOTS of brown ****. You can kinda see it in one of the pictures how it clotted up on the fuel rail. What its doing is collecting on the filter and then falling down. Sadly to say the only thing i can compare it to, is a loogey. lol.

The watery stuff on the rail doesnt really smell like fuel or oil. But the filter smells kinda like fuel. Im guessing that maybe the fuel is getting past the intake valve guides?? someone please help me out here. My oil looks fine by the way.

no none of that. What you see in the picture is exactly what it looks like. Its a light brown color with the texture of a paste. Kinda slimy. Like jelly. i dont know how else to describe it.

Yes its normal, just small amounts of oil that got trapped in with the water/oil vapour. Looks exactly like whats in my catch can.

What does it taste like?

You should really only see oil coming out of there if anything. Sometimes it might look a little diff and have diff consistancy though.

I'm not sure why its a weird consistency, but a little bit of oil residue like that from the breather is fairly normal.

I think the point he's trying to make is people who do this might be spitting oil onto the track.
