the only thing is that I had my coolant flushed and replaced at the dealer ~3 months and 10K miles ago... Maybe the system overall is just so dirty it could use it again... But they definitely look like tiny oil droplets in there...

The thing is, there is definitely an oil leak overboard towards the back side of my engine. After tracing it I see that it comes down and drips off the bottom of the transmission (the round thing that drops down between the oil pan and the pan farther back that id assume is the trans oil). If it is the valve gasket dripping down, ok then Ive solved it, but perhaps it is the head gasket and it is rotting towards the back?

Thanks
