Looks like someone got a little too excited about looking at your O2 sensor.

Default hmmmmmm, could be.

If it was paint spill from the factory, don't you think it would have burned off before 35,000 miles?

Default No way it's all over your 02 sensor they wouldn't put that on after the 02 was put in

I'm going to guess possible coolant leak...when that **** gets baked it turns white...odd place though. Maybe an exhaust leak...but doubtfull.

Regards,

James R.
