update on flying saucers

First of all, Moscow city in terms of ambient temperature is smth like Chicago or Toronto. We are not those drunk bears from Siberia, lol - it isn't that cold here now to form a condensate inside the engine.
Now the whole story came to a question - there is an emulsion on the oil dipstick but there are no signs of that cream in any single duct or channel inside the engine. Question: what had broken down to make such picture? I can only explain it (partially) that there was some water on the top of oil and crankshaft was stiring it up into cream. But the oilpump was being supplied with pure oil (HOW???). If there's a crack in the chain cover then there must some cream in/on the oil pump, right?
Really sorry but I can't say anything on whether the level of oil or coolant was decreasing or increasing. The only hint is that during 30 miles run (when I didn't know that engine was having that cream inside) engine temperature was stable and just a bit below normal level at three o'clock. Neither I saw any bulbs inside coolant tank.
