Sounds like normal condensation to me. Nothing to worry about!

OK, I give up!  My reliable old Farmall H is getting water in the oil and I 
can't figure how it is getting in.   About every 6 months I can loosen the 
oil drain plug and get about 1/4 cup of water out.  The water I drain out 
doesn't have any antifreeze in it so it must not be coming from the cooling 
system.  I always keep the exhaust pipe covered and can't see how it could 
be running down the pipe and into the manifold.  The engine oil is pretty 
black ( change it regularly every 2 years!  :)  ) but not milky.  One time 
when I had the pan off I thought I detected a little water up around the 
rear main bearing cap--or that vicinity.  Maybe just thrown up there from 
the oil.  The tractor lives outside.      Any ideas for me??   John
