Emulsified oil, (oil & water mixed) not a good sign!

And you want to be wary of high pressure fluid in there too !! (not to demean your knowledge or ability but) .. do some good research before you attempt a fix if you plan to do it yourself

While you've got your sleeves rolled up, take a look at the tilt tube and steering bushes too. There's a lot of wear in the paintwork on the inside of the saddle on the starboard side, which could be due to play in these moving parts.
