Holy ****. That looks like a bit more than oil in there. Mine is nowhere near that grody. You have that hooked up right??? Hows your PCV setup situated?

Looks like to me that 6.0 has A LOT of blow-by .

My Supercharged Camaro Ran really clean for 40,000 miles, then I broke
a ring and had some blow-by and in 5,000 mile it did exactly that, moisture and sludge built-up in the cap and the valve covers.

I say that motor has a bunch of Blow-by, run a cylinder leak down test; I think it will show up there.
