Looks like it overheated or never got an oil change.

Who's to say you really got a low mile engine? They have nice steam cleaner machines nowadays and you can make just about anything look new. Is this by chance an engine that was involved with or near a flood? Perhaps they drained the water out and what you're seeing is the sticky icky residue.

Well we will pull some stuff, just not alot. We are doing the cam swap this weekend, so i guess we'll see more then. They actually said "less than 5k," and a 2007. Maybe they never changed the oil. i hope.

even if they never changed the oil, 5k miles won't look like that. its a whole lot easier to pull it apart now and have a look, than to have to pull it back out the truck.
