if your not loosing coolant and your oil itself is not milky you may be fine. it's moisture thats causing the problem. too many short drives in cold/moist weather can do this. or you could have the beginnings of a failed gasket.

just to keep an eye on it for getting any worse as they say. if your oil itself turns a milk color than you have problem requiring immediate attention.
