Head Leak?
Guys does this look like a head leak? Bad gasket? It has not been leaking or getting wet under hard driving conditions nor is my car running past 220 under hard conditions. Any info would be appreciated. Thanks!

Certainly its possible but remember too that all engines will give off various oil vapors and so on, that will stick to whatever, then dirt will attach to that. Simply put, its not at any point I would personally consider removing the heads at this time. If you are worried about it now, do a compression test, cylinder leak down test and check for oil consumption. Also, one more test would be for exhaust gasses in the coolant.
