Well today I noticed the oil looked milky. I drained the oil and it was very thin and milky. The car has sat for a long time. What could have caused this? Bad head gasket? Coolant is fine by the way.

Have you refilled the oil and replaced the filter? Suggest that you do so, and run the engine until at operating temp. Did the milkiness reappear? If not, drive the car for a while, checking from time to time for signs of the milkiness. If the milkiness does not return, chalk it up to the spirits that reside in Lookout Mountain.
