Yellow Oil

I was cleaning out the throttle body and found mustard looking oil in the plastic container that hooks up to the tb. Very funny that stuff looks so bright, who would of thought it would come from the engine.

In the rotary world, that happens from an improperly ventilated crankcase...

Not sure if there's a similar cause/reason in the piston realm.
