That means you have water or moisture in your oil system. Check all of your vacume hoses and try an oil change, but dont do an engine flush. If you have a cold air intake you maybe getting it there. If the film continues you may want to pull the head off and examine it.[8D]

P.S. Check your coolant/antifreeze!!!

ok i do have an cold air intake, and i did the engine flush before i cheked the valve cover, so u think that engine flush could caused it? and i also changed the intake manifold gasket like 3 weeks ago and could something be wrong with that?
