My 1 1/2 year old, 305 CI long block, is starting to collect emulsified oil in the rocker arms. This is not being seen on dip stick, or in drained oil.

Is this a intake gasket, or head gasket problem?
Please don't tell me I might have a cracked block!

Thank you

I believe what you are describing is sort of normal condensation buildup from a poorly vented engine. Make sure the valve cover vent is clean, and the PCV valve is working properly.
