Do you have any pictures? I can't really determine what it is you are referring to.

yeah if it's like choclate milk looking then it's your headgasket and if you know how to work on a motor it's very simple to replace usually auto zone or any other auto parts store sell headgaskets around 30-60 bux pretending on what motor it is and i'm sure there is a step by step on how to replace a headgasket on this site somewhere showing you how to do it..
