could it just be condensation as the sump oil is fine its just milky up the top and you can see a mit being blown out the little hole.
could the crank brether be blocked

What you want to watch for is a build up of crankcase pressure which will start to force oil out of various gaskets and joints..
Milky residue, keep an eye on the temp, if it stays at the normal then there's nowt to get too concerned about, just monitor the water level in the rad just before you go every trip..

Head gaskets can go between oil and water ways without bothering the cylinders, or you can have one cylinder go into a waterway or oilway, or, or, or...if you have a compression tester do a compression test, if two cylinders are a significantly lower than the other then the gasket will have gon! will take my compression tester with me to newquay, so you can havfe a play
This sounds like water getting in the oil to me though,
