It could be what is called lung butter from not having the motor vented properly. Do you still have your emissions stuff hooked up? An easy fix it to put a 90* fitting in your oil cap.

I am hoping this is what it is, after some more research, and investigation with the car I think this may be the problem. The car is a road racing car, so no emissions equipment.
The engine runs super smooth with no smoke out of the exhaust. Also, no bubbles, or any oil in the radiator. I think it is a combination of this "lung butter" some corrosion, and the blue VR1 racing oil that was used in the car.

Thanks for the reply!
