white gunk on my oil dipstick

Was checking my oil yesterday and there was some white gunk on my dipstick.
the level was down a bit (not much) but each time I stuck the dipstick in, some of this white stuff was there with the oil - what could it be? I am not getting nay white smoke out the back - but could it be early head gasket failure? (For that matter, I don't get any smoke out the back).
It is an '86 900s 16V non-t, with over 300K miles. Always have had regular oil changes, and she runs well - never had any major engine work.
Appreciate your ideas.
