im assuming your breather vents to atmosphere ??

if so i would not really worry chance are its just condensation its only a problem if you have alot of it and your breather goes back to the engine

need not worry mate; as said its just condensation. you need to clean out the breather pot & pipes more often

mine does the same, panic not!
