Foamy oil

[Copper Jr]

I'll suggest something no one has suggested : how often do you drive it?
Do you just fire it up and drive it down the driveway the shut it off?

running the engine for short periods of time then shutting it off causes condensation in the crank case and motor.

Yeah since I’ve been working on it I’ve only been starting it up, after I change the oil I’ll be driving it 20 miles daily so we will see if all this helps then last case go for the head gaskets

In the past I've mistaken head gaskets for just poor engine heat cycles in a old mud truck I had.

Just a thought

All oil looks good, nothing in the pan. I still ordered a new pcv but I’m thinking it was the short cycling. I’ll update after a couple long drives.

Yes change it.
5 bucks.

That slop is just from sitting around, your head gasket is probably fine.

CONDENSATION does that.

The weather.

Are head gaskets an easy job? And any brand recommendations?

Not easy.
Many recs...

That's what an oil catch can takes care of. That's why I mentioned it and why I put one on mine.
