condesation is the culprate and extrem heat,,,,we only run our race engines a short time (yes we get them up to 180-200 during warmup) but during the coarse of the race season we have so many temp and humdity changes thru out the season the condesation will build inside the valve cover and stay there,unless we have an endurance race (many rounds or consistant running of the engine )i have seen it in the oil pan windage tray that the oil doesnt cover ,synthetic oil is not helping to keep this from happening amost like brake fluid ,i have seen it from my fleet to my stocker gmonde
