Checked the oil yesterday and noticed that where the dipstick has its first bend (6 inches or so from the bottom) a residue had collected. Dark red/brown in color. Seemed like baked on thin layer of oil, that I was able to scrape off. The oil looked fine. Any ideas? Never seen it before on any of my other vehicles. Engine runs fine.
