Wow, that is weird. Some kind of very rapid corrosion. Green is the color of copper or maybe brass corrosion and white maybe aluminum. If so where would the moisture be coming from? Water is one of the combustion products. Check if the crankcase vent system is clogged. Are you loosing and coolant?

If you run the engine from cold just enough to get the oil warm, is there condensation in the cap?
