if its running fine and its only on the cap its probably just condensation from over winter. you get the yellow spunk when water mixes with the oil

it could just be the damp weather mate causing condensation in the engine or due to making small journeys.
I used to get this when i used to travel just half a mile to and from work every day. when i started driving 40 miles a day it cleared up.
I'd go to a garage and get a compression check done on your engine. that will tell you if the head is gone. hope it hasn't though mate
