Default crap in oil filler/breather

i have a mark 4 fiesta 1.3 jobby and i find that the filler cap gets a lot of white crapp in it, i first thought it was the head gasket but i an not loosing water from the expansion tank, when the enging is running and i pull of the filler cap there seems to be a lot of condensation, also comming from the exhaust, is this the norm or is it fck`t , i was also thinking could it have been the wrong oil that i used 15/30w?

help plz

much appreciated.

short journeys usually cause this, clean it out & change the oil & filter more often

yeah as above mate, usually find this on old lady shopping cars that come in for service. Whip rocker off, clean it out do the oil change and keep an eye on it
