Well... it looks exactly the same as I had with my 122-1967. It is caused mostly by too much mileage between oil change. There may be also unsufficient ventilation of the crankcase area. That means cleaning the fire trap.

That milky stuff plugged all the lubrication holes of the valves rocker shaft on my B-18. Had to put all new parts at 50k miles.

And I hope somebody will comment about the "Orange kiss of death" subject that was posted just about one week and a half ago.

Good oil, good filter, that keeps these engine running for ever. Good luck.
