Default Volvo v50 t5 milky oil cap??

Hi everyone, new to the site

I've just had my Volvo v50 2004t5 serviced and have noticed thee oil under the cap was very milky (worried it mite be the head gasket[&:]) its only covered 38k and the oil on the dip stick looks fine, so i was just wondering ifit was normal ?

Any help on this would be great don't want to go back to the garage and get a red face [8D]

I will bet you only take short trips in it.
That is somewhat common take it out on a long trip on the highway for a little while and that should fix it.
In the colder climates it is kind of normal due to short trips and the condensation cannot burn off due to the short trips.
