That is probably anti-freeze + some oxide from the brass in the
cooling system. There are two things that can happen with a blown head
gasket, cracked head or cracked block. You can get water in oil, oil in water
or both. If the opening is between an oil gallery and water jacket then oil
is forced into water while engine is running due to high pressure and when
engine is shut off the radiator pressure is higher than oil pressure which is
now zero. This forces water into oil.
I would just replace the radiator cap and watch it for a few days to
see what happens. Check the dip stick to see if the oil turns milky looking.
