Default Crankcase breather hose gunk!!

Alright my car is coming out of storage and I'm going over everything and I found that the crankcase breather hose is full of the frothy goo you would find when you encounter head troubles. Now I know It is not the head because she hasnt been driven in months. It has had the chance to drive up and down the road of my complex but no further (uninsured as of right now) So I was wondering If it is anything else. Now it got real cold here in New England over the winter and I'm wondering if that was condensation sitting in the pipe. It seems to have been localized to the bottom half of the pipe as the top end of the pipe that attaches to the air flow sensor boot is free of the goo. Let me hear you guys out. Thanks.

Default Condensation most likely - change your oil right away....

an dthen again in some 100-200 miles. Also check your coolant to make sure its clear and has no traces of oil in it. Flush the coolant too if possible.
